UK Championship - Day nine - Comeback complete as Higgins lifts UK trophy

John Higgins has been on one of the most remarkable journey's imaginable.

But tonight, he completed his resurrection. The new world number one recovered from both 7-2 and 9-5 down to win a nail-biting final 10-9 against Mark Williams.

The snooker was sensational, and a well worthy final for what was one of the best tournaments the sport has seen in a number of years.

The emotion all over Higgins' face as he lifted the trophy spoke volumes. You can only sit back and admire his tenacity.

It's safe to say John Higgins is back!

  1. What a Pity this person won.
    I really feel for Mark and his family and only hope he'll not be too scared form this upset and come back "in full affect" stronger after Xmas because we all enjoy watching his style of play
