The Tennents United Kingdom Championship
Further coverage of today's fifth-round ties from the Guild Hall, Preston. More than E99,000 has already been divided among the players who failed to reach the televised stages of this year's championship - there's another E198,000 yet to be decided, plus bonuses for highest breaks. And after tonight's session the odds on STEPHEN HENDRY for the title could well be shortening.
