Neil Robertson of Australia won the snooker world championship after beating Scotland's Graeme Dott 18-13 in the final at The Crucible on Tuesday.
Robertson took a 12-10 lead over 2006 champion Dott into the final session Monday, which rolled on past midnight.
Robertson, 28, became the first man outside Britain and Ireland to take the title since Canadian Cliff Thorburn triumphed in 1980.
The final was overshadowed by the bribe allegations surrounding world number one John Higgins who had been suspended.
