GLOUCESTER’S Robert Milkins crashed out of the UK Championship in York as he failed to get going in a 6-1 defeat to world number one Mark Selby in the third round.

Milkins was level at 1-1 and had a pink to draw to 2-2 at the mid session interval but missed and went into the break 3-1 down.

From there, it was downhill for the thirty-year-old as Selby took advantage on the numerous mistakes Milkins made to clean up 6-1 at the end.
