John Higgins scored a 147 break in his LG Cup match against Mark Williams at Preston's Guild Hall tonight.
The third maximum break of the Scot's career came in the 11th frame of his match against the Welshman - and earned him Stg£25,000.
It contained an outrageous fluke on the 12th black, after which he kept his nerve to reduce the arrears to 6-5 in the best-of-17-frame match.
