The Juddernaut is truly an awful nickname, it makes it seem as if he's unstoppably shaky.

They should call him Top Trump.

Probably get sued by Top Trumps.

Like the makers of Top Trumps are going to sue a snooker player for having a nickname.

Donald Trump would probably sue him for ‘falsely claiming he is the best Trump.’

He wouldn't sue.
He'd just whine about it on Twitter, and claim it was fake news.

Assuming Judd skips Gibraltar, he'll only need to win either the TC or the WC to set a new record of winning 6 ranking events in a season.
Odds are presumably in his favor of doing it...

I don’t think he’ll skip Gibraltar because he’s been saying it’s a shoot out there with Robbo for the European Tour bonus.

I think he'll win the Tour Championship, don't see anyone beating him over that distance currently.
Not sure about Gibraltar as that's abit of a lottery with the best of sevens, and he obviously won't win at the Crucible due to the curse.

Yeah I expect him to win either Gibraltar or more.likely the Tour Champs.
We all know how the Crucible ends this year for him.

Breaking the 5 rankers records whilst slaying the Crucible curse would be an apt end to the season

In a dream world yes.
In reality? Not really.

Hope Judd can win the Tour Championship, still have horrible memories of that event from last season. Of course he would prefer to win the World Championship but getting to 6 ranking titles before the World Championship would certainly take a lot of pressure off.

I think he is, he did say a few weeks ago that he will be. If he does win the Gibraltar Open he can get that £150,000 bonus.

If he wins Gibraltar he gets that bonus, and imagine he wins the Tour Champs as well, a further bonus for winning the Coral series.
I somehow think he wont win Gibraltar because of the shorter format, but in the TC I really cant see anyone stopping him over longer distance, maybe only Robbo at his very best.

Judd won 8 rankers from 2011-2017, and has now won another 8 rankers from 2018-2020.

He's making up for lost time. Eight wasn't bad, but a player of his quality was always capable of so much more.

Very recently.

I think Ronnie won 8 ranking titles in 17 months, the period was from October 2017- March 2019. He's not won a ranking title since though.

Yep. We all knew how good he was but how he has managed to develop it even more so quickly is superb. Not his biggest fan but what a player.
