Robertson downs Liang to capture second UK title

Australia’s Neil Robertson became the first player to make a maximum 147 break in a UK Championship final on his way to beating China’s Liang Wenbo 10-5 in York on Sunday.

The left-handed Australian, 33, made the maximum in the sixth frame as he dominated the final. Robertson, the 2010 world champion and a former No. 1, was 5-3 up at the interval in the best-of-19 final. Fellow left-hander Liang, 28, refused to buckle as the next four frames were shared at 7-5 before the greater experience of the Australian told as he wrapped up the next three to take the UK trophy for the second time in three years.
