John Higgins grimaces during dramatic World Championship moment as John Virgo speechless
BBC commentator John Virgo was left stunned after John Higgins potted both the black and the white balls to cost himself a frame in his World Championship clash with Xiao Guodong. The pair finished a gripping afternoon session locked at 8-8, but it could have been better for the four-time world champion were it not for one dramatic moment.
Leading 7-6, Higgins seemed set to be pegged back until he managed to get two snookers to reducse the deficit to 67-39 with blue, pink, and black left on the table. The Scot then held his nerve to pot all three and force a repotted black. After an Xiao error, it was the 49-year-old who then had the first real chance to take the frame.
