Alex higgins was the best middle pocket potter that the game has ever seen. And the way he could pot them really hard with top or bottem side on the cue ball, and that shot is so hard to do. If there was a hard pot to be made and your life depended on it alex higgins would be the man to make that pot. He has did shots that will never ever be seen again.
@johnp515
@johnp515 Год назад
Yeah he was the king of the isolated flash shot but his positional play was not the best. It’s the reason why he only ever made 86 centuries in his whole career when some players have made more than that in one season these days

@johnmc3862
@johnmc3862 Год назад
@@davidmellish3295 You either forget or don’t know how Stephen Hendry was. No one will ever dominate like him, even Ronnie. E.g. Ronnie has just 3 more ranking titles than Hendry even with twice as many available per season. If Hendry had that many available he would easily have got to 50 ranking titles in 10 years, rather than Ronnies 36 in a 30 year career.
@davidmellish3295
@davidmellish3295 Год назад
@John Mc OF COURSE no one will ever dominate like him,the standard is far too high for any player to dominate in today's game. A fact which Hendry freely admits,if he was playing at his best in today's game, yes he would have won a lot but no way would he have ruled like he did in the 90s. He was brilliant and so were others but the general standard was miles away from what it is now. It's not me that's forgotten who Hendry was,it just so happens that everyone in the game,pundits,players,commentators, Jimmy,Dennis,J.V etc etc all say that Ronnie's the best ever,Hendry always says it,the only person who says that Hendry's the best ever is Ronnie,as after all nobody's going to vote for themselves in public. I think you'll find, you're in the minority here mate,but that's fine,you're perfectly entitled to your opinion

The worst player of the tournament has to drive a Lada car for the rest of the season. That is the reason why this event was finally stopped in the year 1992. The Snooker players could no longer endure the stress and the great brutality inflicted on the losers of the tournament.

Am sure alex sank the red as the ref had just put it on the spot? It was the way the ref had coverd alex camera view leaning over to place the blue. The man is just great to watch. When hes form he pots balls as if hes on a 6ft table. Long and short pots, safety play the lot. (goat) rip alex

Ray Edmonds was a far better commentator than most today. To be fair he was correct, Alex hadn’t missed a pot and his next stroke was over stretching ridiculously... look at the angle his cue arm is at! Not saying he should have used the rest necessarily because he was remarkable at reaching balls but it was no gimme.
