John Higgins has told Judd Trump he'll have it "tough" if he is go one better than last year at the Betfred.com World Championship. Trump made it all the way through to the final last year - after beating defending champion Neil Robertson in the opening round - but came off second best against Higgins in the Crucible showpiece. The 22-year-old has since climbed to number two in the world rankings on the back of winning this season's UK Championship. But Higgins, who won his first world title at the age of 22, has warned Trump things won't come easy for him as he returns to Sheffield. The Scot said: "It's going to be tough for him because he's fancied now and he's obviously the favourite for the event. "If someone had said to him last year when he was going into the event, 'Next year, you're going to be favourite for it', he wouldn't have believed you, but it only goes to show how far he's come. "Obviously there's lots of people out there who want to see him go back and go one better."
