Nobody has ever been as good as Hendry under pressure,  when it really counted,  he always delivered.

What a History Between These Two Legends... 👌🏻

Awe, can't ask for more than this to watch on YouTube for a few hours! CLASSIC 🔥👍

These are my faves and why:

Steve Davis - First time I recall watching snooker was when Steve was playing. He was at the peak of his career and winning the major tournaments so naturally I followed the winner 😉

Ronnie O'Sullivan - This guy was immense to watch and  watching THAT 147 break live had me hooked on watching and supporting him even more. But THAT 147 was so special to watch as a spectator. Astonishing!

Stephen Hendry - No homo but this guy just looked pristine, he was young and dashing and was virtually  unplayable. I was hooked from the first time I saw him play.

Ken Doherty - Honestly, it was that mars bar that caught my attention and drew me in to watch and support him. In addition his personality made him seem like a real genuine character. He may not have been the greatest to walk the earth in terms of titles but he had my backing every time he played.

one thing i liked about Hendry, especially during his dominance he sat like a king on a throne.

Hendry done alright. Top break of 144 winning a gold medal and £10 thousand. He also won the trophy. A big bottle of champagne and £125 thousand first prize...

Both are legend .. 👌🏽👌🏽

Stephen hendry the bes of the world all of times!!!!!

This was not long before Snooker tournaments stopped looked like walking around a flower shop or botanical gardens.

Two of the best players ever have  graced the baize

To me the difference between Hendry and everyone else during this era were two things.  For starters, his ability to control the cue ball while setting up his 2nd and 3rd shots.  The other was an intense focus.

Three observations:  All the people coughing back then!, The flowers surrounding the table and the men in tuxedos in the audience!!

Amazing match!
Hendry was so focus and brilliant in the 90s,for me is outstanding how good Hendry was at that time,especially with long shots....But,Ronnie's speed is out of this world.How fast he was when he was younger,how good positions,i mean in 10 seconds he potted 2 balls,sometimes 3 with brutal positions...it was a matter of time when Ronnie will overtake Hendry no matter that Hendry weakened And Ronnie began to learn from easy mistakes and matured into the best player I have ever seen...
I repeat, speed game from Ronnie is out of this world..by far the most talented player, regardless of billiards or snooker, leaving good positions so quickly and accurately,I just can't imagine new player or anyone who can repeat that.

Very difficult to seperate these two great champions & it's basically who plays the best on the day.

Mentally Hendry was light years ahead of everyone.

Amazing stephen hendry in his prime.

It's amazing how slow those tables were back then

What a final. Two incredible players.

Anybody noticed that hendrys stance in those year's when he was at his best is way more to the left? I find it interesting because hes been working with siterite and he talks about finding it weird being shifted to one side more that been the left. I wonder if he even knows that  himself that his stance had changed over the years. Just an observation would be a good question to ask him if anyone follows him on Twitter.

No, that was great, thanks for the discussion!
