The Coral
United Kingdom Championship The Final
Frames 22-31
Ten frames to be played, E20,000 to be won, an equation that should produce plenty of tension. Although seeded No 2,
STEVE DAVIS was everyone's favourite to win the title for a third time. ALEX HIGGINS , the holder, TERRY GRIFFITHS , who won in 1982, and TONY KNOWLES were dangers, and DENNIS TAYLOR , who began this tournament as the only unbeaten player on the Championship circuit this season, was the man in form. DAVID VINE sets the scene at the Guild Hall, Preston.
