So that's day five of the 2026 World Snooker Championships in the books.

That's all from us at the Crucible - as ever, thank you very much for joining us.

Let's do it all again tomorrow.

A decent session, bitty in parts and hard to play in, but the application from both players was there. It wasn't the prettiest of sessions, but sometimes that happens.

Apart from that last frame, there were very few chances when the balls were open.

Pang Junxu gets himself right back into this match just as it looked like Neil Robertson was pulling away.

Pang gets a fortunate kiss off the red to open up the pink from the spot, and from there he compiles a break of 122, the first century break of this match.

An excellent display of potting and cue ball control from the 26-year-old.

Robertson will take a slender one-frame lead into tomorrow evening's session.

I'm very impressed with Neil's application, this isn't an easy session to play in.

His cue ball hasn't been as good as normal, but his application has been top drawer.

Pang Junxu looks on a roll, but he misses a pink to the middle pocket and a series of safety shots follow.

The frame becomes scrappy once again, before Pang misses and hits the black to gift Neil Robertson a free ball.

From there Robertson brings three reds into play and builds a break of 53 to take the frame 79-29.

Neil's average shot time is slightly higher than it usually is because he is taking too much thinking time between shots.

Your average shot time comes down when you are perfectly on the next ball between shots.

He has to keep rethinking and changing his plans. There's been nothing wrong with his cueing tonight, but his control of the cue ball is letting him down.

The World Championship has been played at the Crucible in Sheffield since 1977 but never before have all 16 seeded players advanced into the second phase.

Fifteen is the current record, set in 1983 and then matched in 1993. If Si Jiahui and Neil Robertson win, then all 16 of the qualifiers would have been eliminated in round one.

Selby's win means all 14 completed ties have been won by the seeds, although China's Si Jiahui, the 15th seed, trails 6-3 after the first session in his match against Iran's Hossein Vafaei, with that match played to a finish on Thursday (13:00 BST).

It's bitty at the moment, no fluency is there. Neil is trying, trying to get the balls open, but sometimes you get sessions where the balls fall awkward.

It could spark into life easily, but at the moment it's one of those sessions where you need to just win a frame and stick in there.

After some quality stuff from both players, that was a scrappy frame.

Robertson misses a long pot on pink by some distance, before Pang doesn't get the right angle on a red.

Pang is overly cautious with an attempted safety shot and leaves Robertson with a long red. The Australian can't finish the job, but leaves Pang requiring snookers.

Robertson finally takes control following a couple of botched safety shots from Pang to take the frame 67-17 after 41 minutes.

Four-time champion Mark Selby plays world number 10 Wu Yize in the last 16, with the 42-year-old tipping China's Wu, 22, for the very top

"Wu Yize is great to watch, great for our game," said Selby. "He is very young, but definitely a future world champion in the making.

"I will have to play somewhere near the top of my game. He is playing well, won a tournament [the International Championship in November] and he is going to be very confident and fancy the job.

"I saw him in China and he was 13 or 14 and he was even good at that age. He has very good technique, scores very heavily."

Neil Robertson can't find the positional shot. He's landing on the reds, but he's landing on them wrong.

He wants to land on them in such a way that he can get on the pink. You can't keep having that cue ball travelling around the table.

Four-time winner Mark Selby won 10-2 in his first-round match against 2024 finalist Jak Jones of Wales.

England's Selby, 42, lost in round one at the Crucible in each of the past two years, but stormed into a 6-0 lead over the 2024 runner-up, helped by breaks of 67 and 50.

Jones took a tight seventh frame, before Selby regained his six-frame advantage thanks to a break of 78, although Jones ended well with a 90 break in the session's final frame to trail 7-2.

But Selby took the first three frames of the evening session to set up a last-16 match against China's Wu Yize, which begins on Sunday (10:00 BST).

Speaking to the media, Jak Jones revealed he was struggling to breathe at times during the morning session of his 10-2 defeat to Mark Selby because of his asthma: "I felt absolutely shocking this morning, probably one of the worst I’ve felt in a match and I missed a few easy balls and it was a bit of a nightmare.

"It’s not why I lost, I was terrible. I have problems with asthma, it comes and goes and tonight it was not too bad but this morning I couldn’t breathe.

"I probably would’ve lost by the same scoreline, but it just makes it harder with my asthma if you can’t breathe properly. It happened in my last match against Luca Brecel but I got through it.

"When you can’t breathe, you can’t be composed and I feel the pressure in my head and get headaches. It turns into a panic attack because I can’t breath and I want to rip my shirt off.

"If you can’t breathe when you need to be calm, you can’t concentrate. If I take my medication it can make it worse [when playing] as it can give me the shakes."

Neil Robertson hits back with a break of 72 as Pang Junxu is limited to just two shots.

A couple of nice plants help Robertson on his way - maybe he was right to get a bit of practice in at the end of the previous frame.

It's very unusual you see players refuse to concede and get down and pot a few balls knowing they can't win.

Maybe Neil just wanted to loosen his arm.

You usually get your practice in before the match. It's very strange.

Pang Junxu methodically and efficiently builds a break of 73, but a miss on black costs him the century he looked set for.

Neil Robertson doesn't concede and takes the opportunity to pot a few balls and get his eye in after the mid-session interval.

Pang takes the frame 73-40 and leads the match for the first time tonight.

Jak Jones will be back. He's a top class player, but it just wasn't his day.

Jak Jones speaking to BBC Sport after losing 10-2 to Mark Selby: "I felt quite good coming here, I didn't feel much pressure this morning or too nervous at all, but I missed a few easy balls early on, and you can't do that against the likes of Mark.

"It turned into a bit of an embarrassing performance. I just wanted to walk out of there.

"I don't think Mark played at his usual standard, I thought he struggled a little bit. He gave me a few chances which made it worse. It wasn't to be."

Here's the moment Mark Selby secured his place in the second round.
