the good thing is Ronnie was the very first snooker player i ever seen and when i was watching him play for my first time he done the 147break he is the best snooker player anyone will ever see in the future. when im old i will look back and think "i remember this man ther greatest man ever and i wish i could watch him play 1more time"
0:13-0:21: Ronnie looks exactly like me at the age of 16-18! I am proud of looking like my favourite snooker champ! Come on Ronnie!!!!!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!
Gotta agree with you there mate....Higgins is technically a better player than Hendry - Got quite a rare dvd of Alex Higgins doing some trick shots with John Virgo...In my humble opinion no-one has ever come close to reading a table the way Alex Higgins did.
oh yeah dude I am with you all the way with regards to closed minded debaters, who pick and choose which stats they want to obey and then have the cheek to come to a debate without even having the facts. And the fact is, even in Hendry's prime, O'Sullivan is ahead in head to heads.

ronnie is finished. crap season he had he won the least important tournament NI trophy and reached a final in the chinks tournament, big deal that was.
u seem lost.... u get the same ranking points for NI trophy as u do for all others (except worlds of course which is double).. watch him saturday in sheffield....
i dont agree ... he knocked davis off the top....ronnie won UK in 93... nothin wrong with him then... davis and white were still in their prime, id say but for hendry White would have won a lot....
Very brave shot at 3:05. He could have just played for the open red but went into the pack instead. If he'd missed the red in the centre after that, Hendry would have benefited, not him.
The reason i like Ronnie is'nt because he's a great snooker player, its because he's not as serious as teh other players...they are allways so serious hardly ever smiling even when they get a fluke they still dont laugh or smile...
If more people just smiled then the world would be a better place :)
Ronnie is a true legend in snooker my highest break on a full size table is 144.I watch him like I am still a kid he is a genius.I mean I never made the next step and became a pro but my love for snooker burns still with Ronnie and the great nugget still around the 2 best players of all time in my opinion and Stephen Hendry was a great canny player.Would love to have played him.
the best player ever!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for this upload! Great moments, a young Hendry, an even younger Ronnie, records being broken...
I've been looking for frames from this final for quite a while now. Thank you very much, then.
Any more vintage snooker stuff you might have? The 95 Masters, the 97 UK...
