Mark Selby won the Paul Hunter classic or PTC 4  4-0 beating Mark Davis, who had been a very strong contender until he faced Selby.  Audiences had thought Ronnie O'sullivan would walk away with his second PTC title of the year after he completed a fantastic 147,  before sitting down and looking very unbothered by the audiences reactions to what they had seen.
This win for Selby sees him listed at World number 2, his 2,000 ranking points means he has edged above John Higgins although Mark Williams is still at world number 1.  Runner up Mark Davis has also bagged himself a all time career high at 15 in the world, if he can keep his place before the next ranking up date he will no longer need to attend qualifying matches.
