Video Highlights
Description Higgins, who lost to Mark Williams in last year's final, is hunting a fifth title at the Crucible. And he is safely through to round two after beating Davis 10-7, rattling in breaks of 100, 135 and 132 along the way.
Three-time champion Mark Selby survives a scare to beat world number 67 Zhao Xintong 10-7 and reach the second round of the World Snooker Championship at The Crucible, Sheffield.
An out-of-sorts Selby fell 5-1 behind but dug deep to reduce the gap to 5-3 at the end of the morning session. The world number two took control, using all his experience to win five of the next seven frames and progress.
Amateur James Cahill pulled off the biggest shock in Crucible history as he completed an astonishing 10-8 first-round win over five-time champion Ronnie O'Sullivan.
He earns £30,000 for reaching the second round, the biggest payday of his career, and will face Scotland's Stephen Maguire next.
