China's Ding Junhui potted a maximum 147 break during his second round match at the United Kingdom Championship. Meanwhile Ding's heroics couldn't prevent him falling 7-1 behind against John Higgins as the former world champion, 3-1 up at the mid-session interval, won four frames on the bounce. Ding, who won the the UK title in 2005, was trailing the Scot by 2-0 when he sank 15 reds and blacks in the third frame before clearing the colours.

Ding is now on course to claim a bonus 30000 pounds (45872 dollars), made up of 5000 pounds for the highest break of the tournament and a 25000 pounds bonus for the 147. 147s - the complete list 1 Steve Davis (Lada Classic 1982) 2 Cliff Thorburn (World Championship 1983) 3 Kirk Stevens (Masters 1984) 4 Willie Thorne (UK Championship 1987) 5 Tony Meo (Matchroom League 1988) 6 Alain Robidoux (European Open 1988) 7 John Rea (Scottish Championship 1989) 8 Cliff Thorburn (Matchroom League 1987) 9 James Wattana (World Masters 1991) 10 Peter Ebdon (Strachan Professional 1991) 11 James Wattana (British Open 1992) 12 Jimmy White (World Championship 1992) 13 John Parrott (Matchroom League 1992) 14 Stephen Hendry (Matchroom League 1992) 15 Peter Ebdon (UK Championship 1992) 16 David McDonnell (British ...
