World Snooker Championship - Mark Selby beats Ding Junhui

World number one Mark Selby from England beat China's Ding Junhui 18-14 at the Crucible Theatre to win his second World Championship title.  

Selby lead 14-11 going into the final session in the best-of-35 match.  Ding, bidding to become the first Asian player to win the world title, claimed three frames in a row to take it to 16-14.

But Selby pulled out the stops and made it a double celebration for Leicester on the night.
