An angry Mark Selby was sensationally knocked out 10-8 by his friend Ben Woollaston on Thursday night as the shocks continued at the Crucible.

The four-time world champion, the second favourite going into the tournament, follows the defending champion, Kyren Wilson, and the 2010 winner, Neil Robertson, in going out of the World Snooker Championship in the first round.
