Obviously Higgins is the exception with 2 WC wins but all the others who are considered ATG's have at least 3 WC wins on their snooker CV don't they?

When Williams was on 2 which he had been for a long time (15 years) most people already considered him an All-Time Great. Same could apply to Robertson.

He was the first of the CO92 to get to 2 world titles. It took until 2007 for any of them to get to three. Since then Ronnie, Higgins and Selby have all got to 4, as well as Williams adding a third.

Depends on what people mean by ATG - you could argue the bar is higher now than it was in 2003.

One of those things that will be endlessly debated!

It was 2008 the first time a class of 92 won a 3rd world title. In 2007 John Higgins won his 2nd and in 2008 Ronnie won his 3rd. Higgins then won his 3rd in 2009 and the rest of course is history.

Yeah, it's getting tedious now.

Maybe you can bear this experience in mind when trying to tell people how they should feel about things that might affect or hurt or negatively impact them.

Yes. It got tedious when I got accused of this:

And, when I asked him what he meant, he could not come up with a single instance of the behaviour he was accusing me of.

That is beyond f*cking ridiculous.

But, you are right. And I am going to stop now.

That's why it's a hot take
