Murphy...solid!
I played Shaun Murphy when i was 15, and he was 13, in the final round of the midlands qualifying tournament for the national under 15's. Even then the talk was of him being the youngest champ since Hendry. He beat me 3-1 in the final, and his solid cue action has never changed. I always tell people of my hard luck story "if i had won...who know what could of happened". The fact is though, talent gets you so far...but daddys money gets you further. I remember him and his friend sitting there talking about what table they had. i had a 6ft riley table, murphy had a full size riley strachan....Nice!
