Why forced ?
Hendry wanted to win. He couldn't win. So retirement was the only option remaining.

In fairness he played for more than 7 years on after his last ranking title in 2005 at the Malta Cup

By forced you mean retired of his own choice?

Ronnie can't even nestle into the pack properly, give Murphy the trophy.

Ronnie might need some time to warm up. But he'll win this. No problem.

I don't want Ronnie to win, I want Murphy to lose.

Murphy would have struggled hugely on those 80s tables.
