Vote for which of the two players you think was greater. Vote honestly, and leave your bias out of it. Don’t vote for a player just because you like them, don’t vote against a player just because you dislike them.
Consider the table conditions to be whatever conditions would have the least impact on the result.
You can use your own personal criteria for measuring greatness once it’s free of any bias towards/against (delete as applicable) players you like/dislike (delete as applicable).
Comment for whoever you wish to vote for.

They are not so far from each other so I’d say Higgins to make the difference less significant, and because of his centuries achievements.

I'm a big Higgins fan, but it has to be Davis doesn't it?

Now this one is close. Davis, of course, dominated for much longer but Higgy had to share his best period with O'Sullivan and Williams.
Davis (just)

Whereas I see O'Sullivan and Hendry as one and two of all-time, I have Davis and Honest John at three and four.
The Nugget to sneak it by a couple of frames.
