Kyren Wilson has won the first Masters title of his career with a 10-6 win over Scottish star John Higgins. The 34-year-old established a 5-3 lead in the opening session of the final at Alexandra Palace and was in pole position to take home the top prize of £350,000.

50-year-old, Higgins, is the oldest finalist at one of the Triple Crown events and began the match confidently as he looked to win the presitigious event for the first time since 2006, but suffered from too many unforced errors and the world number two made him pay. Wilson powered on to a 10-6 victory after the interval and took home the honours.
