I've seen that link before, thanks for bringing it up again

So if Hearn helped get the ball rolling in China...I know it's briefly mentioned - in only one sentence - in that documentary "When Snooker Ruled The World" that Hearn did think of expanding the game Stateside but wasn't successful...I just don't know of any efforts in that direction from Matchroom off the top of my head (and I was too young at the time to notice, if that ever did occur).

game or sport

snooker in china has being a game to the public for a long time since 1980, but changed to a really sport to both the government and public point of view since Ding came, then more professionals,more snooker clubs and more successful here.
