The ‘class of ‘92’ grew up watching snooker in its hey-day in the ‘80’s. And the likes of Selby, Trump etc. had Hendry to look up to when they all practised down the local snooker club in the 90’s. A lot of the snooker clubs are long gone, or they’re full of pool tables now. Not many kids could tell you what snooker is. Think within 10 years you’ll be lucky if there’s two Brits in the top 16.., and Trump might be one of them. Sad really. It was an intended pun, amazing tournament from Williams but the kid was relentless, well deserved, the best player won. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a surprise that it's taken this long for them to produce a champion. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
