provisional 52nd on the end of year rankings. so he should be safe for next season at least.


Good to know. Still hoping for a repeat of 2016 at the crucible this year though!


That was an outstanding performance. 'I want some of what he's having!' Hendry said at the time

Walking through town is quite scary.

Yeah, that quarter final against Higgins was brilliant. He even put up a good fight against peak Ding in the semis.

The Dai Lama.


Eh? I think I'm missing something with that one.


Tezza is widely considered a snooker yoda. His coaching is mainly on the mental side.

The Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of the Tibetan people and Buddhism, is also a samurai of the mind.

Dai is a classic Welsh name, the Welsh form of David.

Not mine, I can't take credit... Snookerbacker, well-known snooker blogger and twitter impresario coined that one a few years ago.
