Snooker: Stephen Hendry and Stephen Maguire exit in Australia
World No 43 Selt, who came through qualifying, beat current world champion John Higgins on Tuesday and yesterday saw off Hendry 5-1 in the last 16. "There was a bit of pressure for me to win as I was playing Stephen Hendry," Selt said. "After beating John I felt amazing but I was brought down to earth with that performance. I didn't feel like I did yesterday and Stephen didn't play well at all. I only had five hours' sleep last night so that might not have helped, but if Stephen had played well he would've won."
Former world champion Ken Doherty won a low-scoring contest with Scotland's Stephen Maguire in the last 32. Doherty's highest break of the match was just 67, but other runs of 64 and 61 were enough for him to win 5-2 as Maguire could only muster a top score of 50.
Earlier Mark Williams saw off Barry Pinches 5-2, while Mark Selby came back from 3-0 down to beat Joe Perry 5-3.
