World number three Ding Junhui suffers a shock first-round defeat to Crucible debutant Michael Wasley at the 2014 World Championships, but Mark Selby is safely through.

World number three Ding Junhui has been knocked out of the 2014 World Championship after suffering a first-round defeat to Crucible debutant Michael Wasley.

Wasley, who is ranked 72 places below the Chinese, came from 6-3 down to force a deciding frame with a break of 103, and eventually won the match 10-9.

Elsewhere on Monday evening, former runner-up Mark Selby avoided a surprise loss of his own by holding off a comeback from Michael White to claim a 10-9 victory and set up a tie with Ali Carter.

Joe Perry is also through to the next stage after claiming six frames in a row to down Jamie Burnett, who admitted after his elimination that he is 'no longer bothered' with the game of snooker.

Four-time world champion John Higgins will need to turn around a 6-3 deficit on Tuesday to overcome fellow Scot Alan McManus, while 11th seed Ricky Walden leads Kyren Wilson by the same scoreline.
