Snooker: John Higgins storms to victory
JOHN HIGGINS stormed back from a heavy deficit to lift the Shanghai Masters title with a thrilling 10-9 victory over Judd Trump.
Despite a 147 break, Higgins was trailing 7-2 at the mid-session interval in the best-of-19 tussle and Trump looked odds-on to avenge his defeat by the Scot in the 2011 World Championship final.
However, Higgins reeled off six frames in a row and although Trump was able to force a decider, it was the 37-year-old who triumphed to claim the £75,000 prize.
