Wishaw snooker star and life-long Celtic fan John Higgins admits the Hoops' successful season in the Scottish Premiership has him in a good frame of mind to chase a fifth World title at the Crucible this month.
The 47-year-old is Celtic daft and paraded his World Snooker trophy at Parkhead when he won his first world title back in 1998 and he hopes to repeat that feat if he can go and claim another crown in Sheffield in the next fortnight.
The World Snooker Championships get underway on Saturday and Higgins admits he goes into it on a high after watching his team beat Rangers in Sunday's Old Firm derby, which sent Ange Postecoglou's men 12-points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership to all but seal the title.
