SI Lifetime achievement award winner: SnookerFan for the 100,000 post thing

Player of the Year: Judd Trump
Match of the Year: Ronnie O'Sullivan v Mark Selby World Championship semi
Frame of the Year: Probably the Kyren Wilson v Anthony McGill, World Championship semi although I didn’t see it live. Of the ones I saw, either the Ronnie-Selby final frame or UK final final frame
Shot of the Year: Ronnie’s opening red in frame 32 of the WC semi. The snooker escape was awesome but the red in frame 32 was sublime and got him to the decider in the first place. (Runner up: Guodong’s snooker by a tiny margin. Ronnie’s win’s only because of the occasion) the Dreamboat also pulled out several awesome shots in the WGP final

Poster of the year: Pink Ball purely for the Simpsons Meme thread. Historic. (Runner Up: Holden for his unwavering faith in Ronnie’s 6th world title being vindicated)
Best thread on SI: Simpsons Meme thread by a country mile
Best Trump fan on SI: Juddernaut
Best Ronnie fan on SI: Can’t narrow it down so I’ll say Andre purely because he’s a great mod as well
Best Selby fan on SI: Wildey
Best Robertson fan on SI: Ck147
Best snooker analyst on SI: Definitely not Pink Ball
Most objective on SI: Snookerfan
Funniest on SI: Snookerfan and Pink Ball
Best Post of the Year: tough one, probably Guy Incognito
Poster most wanted to return back to SI: Skullman
Best Sh!tposter on SI: SnookerFan
SI Lifetime achievement award winner: Dan-Cat for sheltering the Island dwellers through the monsoon season of site crashes (was that last year?)

You lick a guy’s salty balls one time...

I would like to personally make an award to ChengduFan for his alternative Ranking System, & trip through snooker history.

Thank you for all your efforts.

It’s been emotional
