Martin Clark?

At the risk of acting out of place, in the absence of The Statman, I am going to declare that snookersfun won that last round - provisional on The Statman's confirmation, which I venture should be a formality.

So here is the scoreboard after round 67:

Fred Davis- heart attack?

Congratulations, snookersfun! It was "coronary", but that's close enough.

Referring to his 15-14 win over Alex Higgins in the quarter-final of the 1974 World Championships, Fred Davis wrote in his book "Talking Snooker" that "I didn't play at all well for two-thirds of the match, largely because I had had my second coronary earlier in the winter and hadn’t played at all for three months."

Davis went on to lose to Ray Reardon in the semi-final.


So here is the scoreboard after round 66:

Pos. . . . . . . . Points . . . . . . Name
..1 . . . . . . . . . 12 . . . . . . . . snookersfun
