Mark Allen completed a remarkable comeback against Ding Junhui to secure the UK Championship title. Allen stunned the York crowd coming from 6-1 behind to defeat his rival 10-7 to win the crown.
Ding headed into the clash full of confidence after thrashing the great Ronnie O'Sullivan 6-0 in the quarter-final, and Tom Ford 6-3 in the semi-final. This confidence was clear to see, as he carried on from where he had left off by taking the opening two frames to take an early 2-0 lead.
Allen finally grounded himself and got himself back into the clash as he fought back in frame three, but Ding was in no mood to leave the door open for long.
