That “cmon John” from a commentator when on the brown would usually be met with a bit of a raised eyebrow from folk. But everyone just wanted to see Higgins win one of these deciders again after losing so many in the last two years. Magical

WOW! Absolute Legend Gladiator John Higgins snatches victory from the jaws of defeat. Nerves of steel. Cool, calm & collected. Never gives up! "Are you not entertained?" John 'Maximus Decimus Meridius' Higgins (2024)

No other player in the world do you look at that potential double and think 'he's got this' like John! Unreal! Gutted for Mark but honestly, the class of 92 are a different breed.

That red down the bottom cushion. Absolute balls like King Kong that shot.

@WayneAnthonyHolmes-ez9mh Месяц назад

Did the same against Ronnie O'Sullivan in the 2006 Masters final at Wembley including a double. John Higgins is the GOAT 🐐

Aye, Eurosport's commentary is dire in comparison

@sharpvidtube Месяц назад

I like Joe Johnson. John Virgo is my favourite, Stephen Hendry is great, but a few at the BBC, make me tune in to Eurosport.

Day 2004, O'Sullivan 2006, Williams 2010, Trump 2011, Williams again 2018, Trump again 2019 and now Allen 2024..... What is it with Higgins and these ridiculous counter clearances to win / save matches, usually including a dramatic double!!??

@Chrissaces1 Месяц назад

Not sure I would call it one of the greatest clearances in snooker history, bar a couple of shots that were self inflicted bad safety shots it was mostly a straight forward clearance (with the exception of being a deciding frame of course)

@Demondoink1 Месяц назад

The whole point is that the amount of pressure that was riding on this clearance. He takes on a double where, if he misses, it’s match over. Imagine that pressure. Then hits an amazing shot along the cushion where other people might have just played a safety instead. Great bottle by John 👏

@Jtuesday51 Месяц назад

Needed that now down the bookies to collect his correct score bet

@broxibear101 Месяц назад

Just like Ronnie when he admitted that he was asked to match fix

@siliconesal Месяц назад

He just needs to change his tune ! Back to “Native New Yorker”

@SunniAthari Месяц назад

Other than the double I don't see what the big deal is, especially where the balls are. Good clearance but amongst the best? No way.

@SpiceOfLife2005 Месяц назад

Yeah man, Ronnie does something like this every few weeks

@adesherwood4823 Месяц назад

yea i have to agree with you , best clearance under immense pressure will always be from the other Higgins , most are too young to have seen it so i suggest you go look for yourselves right here on RU-vid .

@schipp3525 25 дней назад

Not so much the clearance itself but the situation. An old Higgins who hasn’t been himself lately does what he always seems to do and clears against the provisional No1 in a crucible decider, to win a match in which he was struggling. If he doesn’t make the clearance he drops out of the Top 16 for the first time in 30 years. Not even O’Sullivan or Williams have been able to keep their spot that long. No - Ronnie does not do this every few weeks. He may make a clearance from behind like this every few weeks…but so does John. Add this to the immense pressure he is under, and the fact he is fighting to stay at the crucible, which the people in this thread seem to have disregarded, and you get, key-words One Of, the greatest clearances of all time.
