Robbo’s become something of a flat track bully in recent years.
Trophy wins are trophy wins.

World Championship is a different kettle of fish. I think like with Ronnie the shorter distance matches suit Robertsons game more.
In the longer matches he gets bogged down and starts overthinking.

Absolutely, that's his main problem.

Would agree with Vodka, but obviously I do not take his death and the other passengers death lightly and am saddened at his death at such a young age in such a cruel manner. I'm sure Vodka also shares those sentiments, but this is not the thread

Not a final, but....
1998 UK Championship 1st Round:
Marcus Campbell 9-0 Stephen Hendry
Was Hendry past his prime at that stage?
He was at his peak.
Oh yeah as if a 1990-96 Hendry would lose 9-0 to Marcus campbell
No version of Hendry should ever lose 9-0 to Marcus Campbell. Hendry would tell you that himself. He's embarrassed by it even to this day, and rightly so.

1998/1999 was definitly the start of the decline there was really bad displays apart from that 9-0 during that season. He lost 3 times to Drago the only 3 times he ever beat him in 18 and lost to Anthony Hamilton before the World that year which was abysmal performance.
He even beat John Higgins in a semi final and to this day ill never know how he was hopeless he fell 4-1 and 5-3 behind John honest to god i even gave up the goast he was so bad and somehow he won 6-5 and he was 65-0 down in the decider before making a 70 to win

Didn't Hendry have a broken tip or something in the Campbell whitewash?
