First time I saw Doug Mountjoy play. Inaugural Pontins Pro-Am 1974. Won it as an amateur. Sleeves rolled up all week, beat John Spencer in the final.
Battery flat on his car, pushed it out of the car park the next day, winners cheque in pocket. RIP to a proper snooker man.

John Higgins is right. The cut off for the Masters is too early given there are now 2 ranking events afterwards before the Ally Pally.
Luca is in the Top 16 now!!
All done to make the Masters draw during the UK final which isn’t as important as getting the right players in it

I’m waking up to the awfully sad news of the passing of Dene O’Kane. One of the good guys. When he came over from NZ in 1980 for Junior Pot Black he was immediately different from the rest of us in a good way. Always had a touch of class about him.
Rest in peace Deno.

I know ROS was throwing his cue at the balls but shot on the green with check side was one of the best I’ve ever seen in live play.
Throwback to Ronnie O’Sullivan’s adventurous clearance to the pink in a German Masters qualifier back in 2014 against Thepchaiya Un-Nooh.
Think he was a bit annoyed about having to play qualifying rounds in England 🚀

I can see shades of a young Stephen Hendry in Si Jiahui. Plays death defying shots because he thinks he can pot them even under the greatest pressure. If he achieves a fraction of what Stephen did he’s sure to be a champion at some point.

One or more of the class of 92 (O’Sullivan, Higgins or Williams) have been in every World Championship quarter final since the first time in 1995. Including this year it is 49 appearances in total. No sign of that stat ending in the near future as class is permanent.

Amazing talent much missed.
In January 1998 Paul Hunter claimed his first ranking event at the Welsh Open. He would go on to claim the British Open, three Masters and a second Welsh Open title in a tragically short career.
Paul was born on 14th October 1978 and would have turned 45 today.
