Thought I'd share this link of the '97 ROS vs Hendry Charity match, which in my opinion is a classic and worth a watch if you've seen it or not: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=as2VCBa15KA enjoy :snooker:

This was during the most intense period of competition at a high level (i.e. 5 or 6 players consistently producing top class snooker) between 1996/7 and 2003/4. It was no longer just a world no.1 you could rely on producing high quality snooker on a consistent basis.
Also by then there was by then more than one outstanding player on the circuit compared to previous periods in which there always only the one outstanding player of the era around.

I dream of a 147 (but would be happy with a 100)

O'Sullivan and Hendry along with John Higgins and Williams were involved in a lot of classic matches around that time, producing outstanding snooker in the process.
Add Doherty, Ebdon, Stevens and Hunter all performing superbly well also in 1996/7 to 2003/4, snooker fans could not get things any better.
It was no one horse race all the time any longer.Last edited by david16; 31 March 2013, 12:45 PM.
