Master Obit 705 Posted July 20 15 minutes ago, DCI Frank Burnside said: Confirmed by World Snooker A bit snarky of them to remind everyone that he never made a 147 break, but that he once got so close by making a 146. It'd be a bit like if Tim Henman died and the ITF tribute included a reminder of him being two points away from reaching the Wimbledon final in 2001. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,350 Posted July 20 18 minutes ago, Yvonne said: Why wasn't Ray on the list, has nobody heard of him? He was still playing snooker and hitting century breaks last December, not exactly a sign of an imminent death. Unless you want Jack Lisowski on the list next year? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 15,752 Posted July 20 1 hour ago, Yvonne said: Why wasn't Ray on the list, has nobody heard of him? He was on my longlist, and I've deployed him in the ABC pool in the past. But the last news of him was that he was in good health, so I've steered clear since. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sly Ronnie 835 Posted July 20 Considering he was a miss for the Deathlist and only picked by a few teams in the DDP, it was another tactical masterclass from the old schemer. RIP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,657 Posted July 20 I wonder who, if anyone, will be the first pro snooker player to make a century. Presumably no one has yet. Is Rex Williams currently the closest at 91? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is Rex Williams currently the closest at 91? Nowhere near the level of acclaim of Rex, but this guy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Rea reached 92. This guy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoff_Thompson_(snooker_player) would be 94/95 if still alive, but he only barely makes the cut of professional.
