Snooker scores: O’Sullivan trounces rival as Selby runs riot | Other | Sport

Mark Selby is totally in control here against Jak Jones.

And you just cannot make unforced errors at this level of competition, against a four-time world champion.

It has been an underwhelming season for the Welshman, but he does typically raise his game at the Crucible.

He so often relishes the longer format and it will need to come to his rescue if he is to get back into this tie.

Jones’ safety success sits at just 77 per cent, far lower than what is needed against specialist Selby.

Jones left the decisive red over the corner pocket and the Jester had little trouble knocking it in, claiming the low-scoring frame, and a 4-0 lead.

Much to do for his opponent.
