Noppon is a credit to the human race. As lovely a man as I have ever had the pleasure to see and listen to. The world of snooker is a better place because he's a part of it. This man is lovely and humble in the extreme and deserves absolutely all the plaudits. A fabulous snooker player as much as he is a human being. Love this guy.
The match against Higgins in the Scottish, Nappon was outstanding. He was rifling every long shot in and doing big breaks from it. He's a great player.
@@user-uc6vs9wf5b Snooker player with the most inflated ego in the game has an RU-vid channel. . The GOAT does NOT BTW its high up on all Bill Boards that Ronnie O'Sullivan is the all era ,all time GOAT UNCONTESTED 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Thank you Stephen for having Noppon on the channel. I lived in Europe (from USA) for a while, went home every 6 weeks and was exhausting but with a family you must do it. I would imagine, for Noppon, the grind would be much harder from UK to Thailand given time zones, climate and cultural changes he is always adapting too. Hats off to him and his recent tournament results!
I honestly think some snooker players practice too much. I very much doubt top golfers practice for 8-12 hours a day and they have WAY more things to work on with a full bag of clubs etc. Surely roughly four hours a day is enough to keep the technique in good working order? There must be a point in the day where they're just going through the motions. The mental fatigue must add up too...
Maybe some of them practice too much, or not very efficiently. But you seem to have no idea how many things a pro snooker player has to work on.@@Eat-MyGoal
Absolute salt of the earth is Noppon. He deserves a place at the masters, I for one would love to see it. Even listening to Stephen you could tell he was taking it all in.
What a great person Noppon is and his game is getting better every time i see him play. Great video again Stephen. Can't wait for the tough table challenge with Noppon
I don’t think we quite take into account how tough it must be for Asian players moving to a completely new part of the world - Noppon so well mannered.
He's so humble and his story is amazing and the dedication he put through, living a different life style in the UK. Stephen you need to get poomjaeng on here some day
really look forward to seeing more of Noppon on TV...if rankings were judged by character then he is top 3...lets hope he gets to that level with his snooker skill....i would also add..Please Stephen...can you do another interview with Nappon, this was way too short for such an interesting player...
Noppon is such a gentleman. So sweet, really hope he fulfills his dream of playing in the masters. He seems to be improving all the time. So fingers crossed for him!
Great guest. So impressed with Noppon’s dedication and commitment. In every interview and here he seems like such a good bloke as well, I wish him well for the rest of 2024. Cracking stuff again on this channel. Thank you!
This is the first 'interview' I've seen with this young man; I had no idea he was such a nice guy and so dedicated to his sport. O hope he achieves his goal of playing in the Masters, and more. He deserves success. Thank you Stephen and to Noppon for a great video. :-D
what a lovely man a credit to the sport and also a fantastic player i do hope he reaches his goals he and his family deserve it ...thanks also steven for the videos you do
Great interview. Such a friendly fella. I wish him all the success. I think the UK players have no idea the sacrifice these Asian players have to go through to even play snooker. P.S. Any chance of arranging an interview with Selby sometime soon? :)
Here we have Noppon, a 31yr old top pro, who practices 8 hours everyday and has managed to make only one final in his whole career. That is not meant as a slight on Noppon, it just highlights the standard at the very top of the game. Scary!!
Yeah, it’s why all the pros were utterly in awe that O’Sullivan took a year off, playing practically no Snooker, and came back and won the World Championship in 2013. I think it was Barry Hawkins who said “The general public don’t know how unbelieavable that was”
Think Noppon will have gained a lot of fans from this video. What a genuinely nice, polite, hardworking guy! Never really looked out for his results much in the past but I will do now.
Man I love this channel so much. Every time you have a chat with one of these players, I feel like they have to be my new favourite. You introduce them in such a lovely way, and its so nice to see the people behind the athlete. Love it!
Another great interview!! It must be such a challenge for the Chinese and Thai players to come and play in uk with the media spotlight on them as well. But is also cool that they seem to embrace it. And so good to see the British players loving to go and play in china as well (Ronny seems to enjoy it a lot) so it's working both ways I think
Really liked this one Stephen. It was great to see Noppon away from the table.. Otherwise you rarely get to see their life away from snooker. and you have a great way to disarm them!
Hearn needs to get a ‘Drive to Survive’ style Netflix show about snooker, would be so fascinating to see players like Noppon building towards tournaments
Because Ronnie is happy that he has won more than Hendry, and Judd. So according to your logic Judd has to the most miserable player on tour..the reason he has won just 4 TC titles lmfao More like my fault for spitting FACTS 😂😂😂😂😂 He did F'all for the sport.Only killed spectator interest in the game along with Davis with their boring robotic style of play. Davis a player who made 355 centuries,and just one 147 in a career spanning 40 plus years. Would be considered an over hyped club level player today. Its different gravy now,and both wont stand a chance today.Ask yourself why Hendry cant go beyond first round now to save his life? The standard is too high! How exactly did Hendry win those WSC titles? He always crumbled against top class opposition. Not if he was playing Jimmy. He literally won 4 of his 7 world titles against Jimmy,then Ebdon.and Nigel Bond! Hear hear World class players NOT. He also lost World Finals to average break builders Ken & Ebdon. Lets remember the standard he had to play back when he won so many titles the only real competitors he had was Davis and White. Ronnie won most of his titles with a much stronger field with so many top players that can win it any day just to name a few Higgins, Selby, Williams, Robertson, Allen, Trump, Murphy the list goes on and on. So in conclusion he was a great player for the opponents he had to face, did he have any of the type of opponents I mentioned he would definitely not have won much or any. Ronnie O'Sullivan is the GOAT 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Pretty darn sure the GOAT Ronnie O'Sullivan owns Davis, Stephen Hendry,Higgins,& Williams Head to Head and in Finals.Absolute fact! Ronnie O'Sullivan is the TRUE GOAT 🐐
His long potting has always been good. In my experience with pros and amateurs Decels are typically mental at root. Uncertainty and a lack of confidence due to some doubt connected to this particular shot. Resulting in a lack of commitment to the shot. Technical failure always follows mental
