Higgins is the world No 1 and looks a deserved favourite after the way he grounded ‘The Rocket’.”Betfred.com World Snooker Championship oddsOutright: 15/8 John Higgins, 9/4 Ding Junhui, 3/1 Mark Williams, 4/1 Judd Trump.Semi-finals:8/13 John Higgins, 13/10 Mark Williams4/7 Ding Junhui, 11/8 Judd Trump Read our Betfred review Get your £50 free bet at Betfred now Like Like Post to wall 280 Reads All Snooker News Recent Snooker Articles World Snooker Championship 2013 Odds - Ronnie Favourite To Defend Crucible Crown08 May 2012Ronnie O'Sullivan has been installed as the early favourite for next year's World Snooker Champions Ronnie O'Sullivan winning slide show08 May 2012Ronnie O’Sullivan wins the 2012 Betfred World Snooker Championship Ronnie O'Sullivan 13/2 for fifth world snooker title in 201308 May 2012Ronnie O’Sullivan looks sure to defend his World Snooker Championship title in 2013 – but has warne Ronnie O'Sullivan 16/1 to break World Snooker Championship title record08 May 2012Ronnie O'Sullivan is taking a break from snooker but Ladbrokes are backing 'The Rocket' to return a O'Sullivan Within Touching Distance of Fourth World Title07 May 2012Ronnie O'Sullivan leads Ali Carter 15-10 after their penultimate session this afternoon and needs j Will Ronnie O’Sullivan announce his retirement from snooker tonight?07 May 2012Ronnie O’Sullivan has indicated he could be set to quit snooker on Monday evening after his 2012 Wo More Stories Recent Articles Longchamp Tips: Aigles to soar in Prix d'Ispahan26 May 2012The feature event at Longchamp on Sunday is the Prix d'Ispahan (14:45), which Goldikova won in 2010 Norway v England Result – Young gives Hodgson debut win26 May 2012Ashley Young netted the only goal of the game as England gave new boss Roy Hodgson a winning start Venus Williams v Paula Ormaechea - French Open live stream26 May 2012Venus Williams will make a start to her French Open campaign with a match against Paula Ormaechea o Russian Grannies proving popular on Eurovision26 May 2012The Eurovision Song Contest final begins shortly in Baku with StanJames.com reporting money for the League One Play-off Final Result – Huddersfield promoted after penalty shootout26 May 2012Huddersfield Town earned promotion to the Championship after beating Sheffield United, 8-7 on penal No Deposit Required Free Bets26 May 2012Is there such a thing as a free bet?
