John Higgins, Mark Selby, & Shaun Murphy all booked their places in a strong second round line-up at the WST Classic in Leicester.

A ยฃ80,000 grand prize will be awarded to the winner after the tournament’s conclusion on Wednesday.
BetVictor Championship League champion Higgins has struggled in ranking tournaments this year, so the Scotsman’s 4-3 triumph over Michael White provided much-needed motivation. White’s 82 clearance brought the score to 3-3, but Higgins’ break of 53 clinched the match in his favor. Meanwhile, Mark Selby managed resounding 4-1 victory over Robbie McGuigan to maintainย his prospects of qualifying for the Duelbits Tour Championship in Hull.
