Mark Allen admits he has 'only myself to blame' after his dreams of winning the World Snooker Championship were ended for another year by John Higgins.
Mark Allen admits he has "only myself to blame" after his dreams of winning the World Championship for the first time were ended for another year by a resurgent John Higgins.
After they shared the next four frames, Allen missed a crucial red with the rest in the deciding frame, allowing the Scot to produce a superb match-winning clearance."I had more than enough chances to win it and credit to John, he does what John does and clears up in the deciding frame.Allen, who reached the World Championship semi-finals last year, came to the Crucible at the end of an impressive campaign that has seen him win three titles.
And Allen believes Higgins - who last won a ranking title three years ago - still has it in him to claim a fifth World title, 13 years after his fourth."I've said that for a long, long time. He's ultra competitive. He wants to win and obviously wants to get back into the top 16.
