World Snooker Championship 2022 - Mark Selby leads Jamie Jones at interval, Zhao Xintong in control against Jamie Clarke
Mark Selby showed glimpses of his best to lead Jamie Jones 6-3 following the afternoon session of their World Snooker Championship first-round encounter at the Crucible. Defending champion Selby fell behind after a rusty start but, once he found his rhythm, simply had too much for 34-year-old Jones who missed a massive chance to level the score at 3-3, but now faces an uphill battle in the evening session on Saturday. Ad/> Underdog Jones put together a break of 24 in the first frame but could go no further after failing to split the pack.
