In other news the Worlds are staying at the Crucible until 2045 after a refurb and extension of the theatre was confirmed. Will be played elsewhere in 2028 while it's being done. Bets on China?
It's only one year so who really cares, but pleased to see this news El fella.
Yup, it's great news. Iconic venue and good they've if not solved at least kicked the problem down the road.

Superb fearless snooker from the Thai to beat Ronnie
He was incredible, makes you wonder why he hasn't had a better career. You can't live with that.

I remember thinking back in the day, could anyone beat Steve Davis?
Manuel, as well as being an orange helmet.

Just watched the last frame clearance FMOB that wasn't bad for someone who "doesn't have the shots in his locker any more"

FMOB, the orange helmet is a great snooker player as well?

Just won his SF 6-5. Likely to play Trump in the final.
Great effort. Chuck Norris made a break of 156 just before he departed Planet Earth and now holds the record.

The debate has long been won and even Hendry admits it himself. The 8th just rounds it up nicely.
No one has broken the number of records he has and this is just another one added to the list of achievements.

The greatest of all time, I just want to see him get that final World Championship before he can finally fuck off in to the sunset. Time's running out for him though. This kind of thing happening at just the right time could give him the confidence to manage it with the World's just around the corner.
Same. Just to put the him or Hendry stuff to bed once and for all.
Extraordinary man. He IS snooker.

Certainly the GOAT when it comes to snooker, not seen it but will have a gander on YouTube.
I watched it live which was good.
The total max you can get is 155, he potted 2 pinks in the break. The final black was also very missable tight on the cushion.
