Durrant supports Selby during mental health issues: "He’s been supporting me and all the time I never asked about his well-being"

Glen Durrant has been through his own struggles on the oche in the past 18 months or so with a battle with COVID-19 seeing the three-time World Champion who had just been crowned Premier League champion go from one of the darting elite to fighting for his career.

'The Jester from Leicester' Mark Selby, four time Snooker World Champion supported Durrant through his struggles before revealing his own battle with mental health as of late with the Teesside ace sending his support to Selby.

“I can’t believe he’s been supporting me through my loss in form, always asking how I was and offering help and all the time I never asked about his well-being. Stay strong champ.”

“I just want to say thank you to all the kind messages and support from everyone! Also happy to see that I have helped a lot of people to speak out also. After speaking out I realise more people are going through it than I actually thought," said Selby on Twitter.

“I am trying my hardest to come through this working with a doctor having a couple of sessions a week. It’s a long road but I’m ready for the challenge. Thanks again for the support.”
