16 Red Clearance Steve James 1990 World Championship

[tallpaulmwright]

moment of history.... amazing that Steve's highest break is 142 but he has the only tournament 16 red clearance.....and against Alex who had the first recognised 16 red clearance in ymca about 20 years previous ...again less than 147..lol...

Superb talent. Remember him well running the Aldridge Tavern. He could still be playing today if he didnt let his fustrations get the better of him.

Thanks.

Steve James did NOT win the highest break prize. In the end it was John Parrott who won it

[MrGoochtickler]

Played Steve a few times when he used to use my local club in Stafford - what a talent the guy had got!!

@MrGoochtickler Yeah I agree, with his natural talent i'm suprised he didn't have more success in the game. Any idea what he does these days?

Did you hear that Alex Higgins died?

[Visonu]

Why was Steve James given a freeball after Alex Higgins missed at the start of this frame?

[GOMH]

Because he couldn't fully hit any red on the table ...

[Visonu]

Well he could have played a double shot into the pack of reds

[GOMH]

He could have but that's not relevant to what you asked. He was snookered ... hence the free ball ...

[Visonu]

You might be right be he could hit the cue ball away from the brown and gone into the pack

[chriswatts83]

That would be a risky shot to play and potentially leave Higgins on. The free ball rule is there to stop players gaining an advantage from a foul snooker.

BBC1 or BBC2?
