Honestly, I don't know which season I'd rather choose...
I'd probably choose Robbos. UK and Tour Champs is just much bigger than anything Trump has won this season.

I'm inclined to think the same way.

Funnily enough, Jones and Wenbo have their best Crucible results on their debut, quarter-finals in 2012 and 2008, respectively.

Do those two tournaments mean Robbo’s still ahead of Judd in the GOAT list?
Judd has two more ranking titles but Robbo has two more UKs and a TC which will no doubt be a major if it sticks around. Not to mention two CoCs which is well on its way to being a major imo.

This Robbo vs Liang match is going to be a belter.

Robbo still ahead, but it might change if Trump starts winning more big titles.

Liang moves so much on the shot, not Alex Higgins like but not far off either.

How many titles ahead of Robbo would Judd need to be, if he doesn’t win any more majors, before he jumps ahead of Robbo?
Does his 2 years of dominance count for anything?

One of the best matches that I ever saw live was John Higgins vs Liang Wenbo 10-9 at The Crucible a few years ago.

Judd’s been talking about dress code as we know. But he’s already influenced it. How many players wore crossover bowties before he came to prominence? Now various players wear them.

Would like Mags to have another Crucible deep run, but unfortunately he can meet Ronnie in the quarter-finals.

Oh I’m sorry, was that post not interesting to you? Shall I talk about having a rubbish, or having gone to the shops, or which device I’m watching on?

tough to say who is ahead, Trump or Robertson. I think the way Trump has won his titles has probably been more impressive. Particularly his display in the Masters and World final 2019.
But Robertson has definitely won more of the bigger titles. Tour Champs, CoC twice, two more UK's than Trump.

Probably best that you just don't talk at all.
