Snooker: Stephen Hendry today threatened to make it two 147 maximum breaks in two days in the World Championship in Sheffield.
Just hours after Ronnie O'Sullivan's brilliant clearance, Hendry potted 14 reds and 14 blacks in the fourth frame of his quarter-final with Wales' Ryan Day.
But the Scot then missed the final red to end his chances of sharing the £147,000 bonus for a maximum and the £10,000 for the highest break of the tournament.
The break of 112 was still enough to give the seven-time champion a 3-1 lead at the mid-session interval after Day had taken the opening frame with a break of 66.
On the other table Ali Carter had a 2-1 lead over former champion Peter Ebdon, Carter taking the first two frames with breaks of 50 and 57 before Ebdon hit back with runs of 50 and 61 in the third.
