Sullivan matched at heavy odds-on when set for victory at Welsh Open - pair lead betting for World Championship

Ronnie O'Sullivan was matched at [1.02] to win the Welsh Open when 8-5 up in the best of 17-frame final against Mark Selby.

But the Jester from Leicester shocked the Rocket with an astonishing four frame comeback to land the winner's cheque.

Betfair customers took a top price of [27.0] on a Selby win.

The finalists head the betting for the 2008 World Championship. Ronnie is the [4.2] favourite while Selby - winner of the Masters in January and semi-finalist of the UK Championship in December - is available at [8.2].
