    Higgins suspended in bribe probe


    Snooker world number one John Higgins has been suspended from all tournaments after reportedly agreeing to take a £261,000 bribe to lose frames.World Snooker chairman Barry Hearn said he had to take "drastic action" following the News of the World report.

    The paper says it has video of Higgins and manager Pat Mooney making a deal.

    Mr Mooney is quoted as saying they feared for their safety at the time. There is no suggestion Higgins has ever thrown a frame or fixed a match.
