I started this thread to talk about 147 related records.
At this moment in time, ROS is the player with the most 147 breaks in competitive play. He also holds the record for the fastest one. Hendry is second with 11 and Higgo is 3rd with 9.
1. I doubt anyone will ever make a faster one, but do you guys think someone will surpass his 147 tally (meaning total number of maxis) ?
2. Will Higgo topple Hendry to take second place ?

Ding has a very good cuebball control, so there is a possibility for that to happen. The question is will Ding play long enough to do it ? His head isn't focused on snooker atm. In recent interviews he said he missed out a lot on life cause all he did while being younger was to play snooker.

I think ROS has more in him yet so I don't think it will be beaten for quite some time.
Higgins will beat Hendry IMO

Higgins will topple Hendry but I don't see anyone beating Ronnie's tally. He's on 15 and he'll add more. He probably has a record of 20 to reach.
147s are popular now but they're spread out among players. Ding is on 6 so he'd have to make one 147 every year (which no one has ever done) for the next 10 years to surpass Ronnie's 15 and that's taking into account Ronnie stays at #15 for the next 10 years. Not happening.

All sports are littered with 'unbeatable' records. Until they get beaten. As my father would say never is a long time.
Ronnie's 5mins20 is not the fastest that is humanly possible. It will be difficult but eventually will get surpassed.

I'd have to see that before I believe it. It woud be insane if someone would knock in a 147 in less than 5:20.

I'd love to see someone doing one at the Crucible.
