All-time decider win percentage

Postby Holden Chinaski » 12 Nov 2018 Read

I decided to look up the stats on decider win percentages on Cuetracker. It's very interesting, but you have to keep in mind some of these players have played a lot more deciders than others...

Ronnie O'Sullivan: 63.38%
Ding Junhui: 61.08%
Stephen Hendry: 60.09%
Stephen Maguire: 59.91%
Mark Selby: 59.52%
Steve Davis: 58.85%
John Higgins: 56.76%
Mark Allen: 56%
Mark Williams: 55.12%
Neil Robertson: 54.26%
Ken Doherty: 53.6%
Ali Carter: 53.36%
Shaun Murphy: 52.47%
Matthew Stevens: 51.38%
Peter Ebdon: 51.18%
Jimmy White: 50%
Judd Trump: 48.08%

Great topic!

I've always said that the most undervalued weapon in Ronnie O'Sullivan's formidable armory of weapons is his ability to win deciders. This stat shows his devastating ability to confound the supposed "coin toss" environment of deciders and win almost two thirds of the frames when the pressure is at its greatest.

I bet money according to the rhyme...

Ronnie annoys, losing frames on the spin
But come a decider, then bet on Ronnie win. :-D

Another stat I'll flag up.. Judd Trump 48%!

Slightly disappointing.

I don't agree, I think 51% is about what you would expect from a very good (but not really great) player.


The players over (I'll say about) 57%, who have played many deciders in their career are the ones to really admire.

Yea but you can think of so many big deciders he’s lost in his career that you probably forget

I assume you mean Stevens? I never thought he was particularly susceptible to nerves. But I never watched him that closely.

.[This was an edit of a previous post. At least it was supposed to be. Maybe I just hit the wrong button, such things happen. However, I seem unable to delete a post, even if I could offer a reasonable explanation. I'm sorry. OK.]

Really you would need to compare these to their overall frame win percentage to get an ideas which players raise their game in a decider.
