Ronnie O’Sullivan did this today 😎 #snooker #ilovesnooker @ronnieo147

He is to us what Messi is to Football, Hamilton is to F1 & what Taylor is to Darts A sad day for the league as @ERT_Khalifa officially announces his retirement from JACKOCAR. He leaves behind a heap of records that may never broken. All we can say is, thank you. Legend. Khalifa was one of the founding members of JACKOCAR helping Jacko get the league off the ground during ILR’s swan song season. His ideas and input helped produce the product of JACKOCAR that we know and love today. Notably, “The Chase” is a Khalifa idea. The thought behind it was that drivers not so well on points still had something to fight right to the very end. We have seen three championships won by Chase drivers. In his own career, Khalifa was one of the best. From race 1 to race 71. A formidable opponent who knew where the limits of the rules were and where line was but never crossed it unless Pete Knighton was on the receiving end. 18 race wins and 2 Cup Series Championships tells you all you need to know about how good Khalifa was and his 900 all time points was achieved in less time time than anybody else had ever done it. 71 races to be exact, with his final race, a lowly P13 finish taking him to that milestone. From the controversy of letting Paul McGinnes win in Hungary that time to etching his name in the record books at the end of last season as a two time Champion, Khalifa leaves a large hole in the Cup Series. One that will never be filled. He has done more for us than what any other league could ask for. One of the greats and he will be missed. Congratulations Khalifa and good luck in your future endeavours. 🐐.
