Snooker: Selby defeats Grinder Ebdon

Mark Selby played brilliantly well to dispose of former world champion Peter Ebdon by 13 frames to 8.

During the match Selby knocked in 5 centuries, 3 of those in succession, the other 2 back to back. This has to be the best win of Selby's professional career and it will be his first appearance in the World Championship quarter finals.

He will play Ali Carter in the next round who beat a well out of form Stephen Hendry 13-6. That said, Carter played really well. Hendry said, "Every time I went to the table, the white was somewhere where I didn't want it."
