Mark Allen was relieved that snooker avoided their Monica Seles moment after the sport’s biggest ever security breach at the World Championship.
Tennis ace Seles was stabbed in the back as a crazed Steffi Graf fan got onto court 30 years ago.
On Monday night, an environmentalist yob defaced one of the Crucible tables with orange powder, whilst another crank was stopped from doing the same during Allen’s match by fearless Belgian referee Olivier Marteel.
