Selby records three wins

Mark Selby is on course to reach the play-off stages of Championship League Snooker after recording three Group Two wins at Crondon Park Golf Club.  

World number one Selby made breaks of 68 and 70 on his way to beating Shaun Murphy 3-1 before downing Mark Davis 3-1. He rounded off a worthwhile day with a 3-2 win over Matthew Stevens that included a closing break of 77.
Stuart Bingham, Mark Davis and Shaun Murphy all enjoyed two wins from their three matches, but 2011 champion Matthew Stevens is heading for the exit door after four straight losses.
Each group features seven players with each man playing the other six once in a round-robin basis. Every match is the best of five and the winner gaining a point. At the end of the league phase the top four advances to that group's semi-finals where the two winners meet in the final.
Players are awarded £100 per frame in the round robin stages, and this increases to £300 per frame for the play-offs. In addition, £3,000 goes to the play-off winner, £2,000 to the runner up and £1,000 each to the two semi-finalists.
