great list but I'd have included Robertson Trump CoC final 2019. One of the best finals ever imo. Certainly in terms of standard. And it went to a decider.

Just finished watching it a few days ago. Can't believe some of those long reds Ronnie took on and potted in the last few frames...

I still can't believe how relaxed and cool Ronnie looked during those last frames. The more pressure there was, the better he was playing. Even when the match was over you could not see any emotion on his face. No fist pump or nothing. Just casually walked away. He was like a Buddhist monk or something.

I gather that's what he's been working on with SP. I do wonder, though, what Steve thinks/says about some of the crazy shots Ronnie takes on...

always so tough to compare WC matches to non WC ones. Dohertys whole run in 2003 alone included legendary matches all way through.

Good man, might have had it slightly higher myself, maybe just inside top 20, but it's your list and a good list, so not going to argue the case.

Nah, 26th is about right. The standard is insanely high though.

Fair enough, a few are before my time - only really remember from 85 final onwards and then had a few gaps due to life getting in the way - why I wasn't going to argue!

I had meant 26th place! I mistakenly had it and the 2019 Tour Championship semi-final swapped.
26th is very, very high though. That top 50 is insane.

I was joking. I am dynamite in the sack.
Your partner gets you started, then runs away, and a few seconds later you explode while she watches from a distance?
