You can tell he was just a young pup. They all play fast, go for everything and try and screw back as much as they can. That gets a wee bit safely oriented as they get older. He’s the GOAT btw
BOTH legends of the sport. A lot of admiration for Dennis.. aaahhh... and whispering Ted Lowe.. God rest his soul. Every time I pick up a cue I can hear his voice.. Even if it's only a few times a year now..
He was like a little whippet when he was young, rushing around the table like Ronnie O'Sullivan. He slowed down a tiny bit as he got older but he was still fantastic. One of my favourite players.
As soon as Hendry came on to the scene you just knew he would be a star. When it come to bottle, mental strength and producing the goods under pressure Hendry was in a league of one
I like the way Davis paid a lot of respect to Hendry here saying the shoreline was fair and if he keeps playing like that they will have some good battles in the years ahead..Davis knew he was the right person to take his crown
What a super little talent he was and so humble all throughout his professional playing career. Now he's cool and totally repaying back for his mispent youth! fine dining here and there, international events smoking cigars hot girlfriend and steve davis now a DJ

This is absoloutely amazing! thank you for uploading this. It's such a dire shame though with Ronnie not having something like this to look back on as with his family situation, i know there is one of when he was a amateur with his father, but nothing like a major. amazing this.
Didn't matter to O'Sullivan about his family history - he has repeatedly and publicly called his father, a convicted race hate murderer, his "hero"...says it all about him, really...
Determinacja , koncentracja, skuteczność oraz piekielna wytrwałość w dążeniu do celu sprawiły że ten Wielki ,, mały człowiek" - osiągnął więcej aniżeli się ktoś mógł, lub wątpił spodziewać w tak bogatej karierze sportowej. Jak na razie jeszcze nie olimpijskiej dyscyplinie ale może kiedyś - jeszcze raz na wskroś chylę czoła tej PEREŁCE GWIAZDZIE SNOOKERA .
That killer winning instinct in his eyes literally was visible from the very first ranking title a great snooker player in my vision if a guy can win 7 world championships with a rack cue , then he is just a modest guy saying o’sullivan is the best player ever picked a snooker cue no offense to ronnie he is awesome but this guy is a winner
Respectfully, every pro player, with the odd exception hey or there, believes Ronnie to be the best ever. He equaled the ranking titles, has 5 world championships and doesn't play in nearly the amount of tournaments that the others do. He also did this while battling a substance abuse problem and mental health condition. Can you imagine what Ronnie would have accomplished had he not turned to drugs/alcohol and played in all the seasonal tournaments? There's no doubt he'd have at least 10 more titles and most certainly have at least tied Stephen for world championships.
@B you've spoken the real truth (no pun intended). I do believe the only man in history to really be able to compete with Ronnie, is Hendry. The natural ability of Ronnie is something out of a fairy tale, it is so beyond comprehension. It is very tough to say, really. They played against a slightly different group, at different times, have different life issues... Very tough indeed. I believe my money would still be on Ronnie (prime vs prime with no substance issues or mental issues obstructing). In years to come I suspect the Judd trump argument with become a topic amounst the snooker community, if it hasn't already.
Real Truth What a lot of crap. Can you imagine what Hendry would have achieved if his cue never got snapped. He’d never have lost the one to Ebdon that’s for sure. Snooker at that level becomes mostly a mental game and Ronnie was never there from the off in that regard. Drink and drugs? That’s his downfall and stuff like that was Jimmy’s too. Hell mend them.
B I’m not annoyed. Just stating facts. Hendry also had his dad leave when he was young too. Ronnie’s had his chances to equal Hendry and when it came to the crunch against Selby he couldn’t do it. That was him at his mental peak too. You also have to take into account Hendry getting the yips or he would have continued playing his one visit style of snooker for many more years. God knows what else he would’ve won.

I started off like Stephen but in the sport of pinball. An absolute child prodigy at age 9 I could beat anyone in Canada. At age 14 I won my first world championship. The Guinness Book of Records still has won't recognize the record only Twin Galaxies for the youngest world champion on record.
Could see him becoming World champion after seeing him beat Parrot 5-2 here in Derby 87..3 years later he was! Can't see Ronnie winning 7 world titles.
well he has now, it did take him 31 years though it took hendry 14. Hendry still the best for me. 5 consecutive world titles and 5 consecuive masters, deciding frame 147 the most centuries ever though osullivan has bettered some of these records he took far more tournaments and years to do so, and hendry century total includes many games where opponents knew to force a scrappy frame/ hendry invented what we consider snooker now ie. 1 visit snooker and will never likely be bettered and his rankung titles total was done with only average 6 per year for most of it. Ronnie is exceptional sometimes but has never been consistent enough to dominate like Davis or Hendry and has a terrible attitude for a so called gentlemans game.
That intro track is nothing Henry or anyone in the Caucasoidian Union would listen to 🤣🤣🥴. Music doesn't match video, music matches what OP only likes.
To me...this is the best player ever to take a cue out of a case
Chris Coleman Mmm dunno, many other players have also taken their cues out of the case
@@obs4281 agreed..a lot have...but not as good as hendry..nowhere near...maybe o sullivan comes close
Chris Coleman Mmm Quinten Hann. Best player that's ever been ahha
@@obs4281 😆😆...nice try but...i have actually met quintan..hes such a nice guy...down to earth 👍👍
Correct

As soon as Hendry came on to the scene you just knew he would be a star. When it come to bottle, mental strength and producing the goods under pressure Hendry was in a league of one
When he worked with Griffiths. He got ruined completely.
I like the way Davis paid a lot of respect to Hendry here saying the shoreline was fair and if he keeps playing like that they will have some good battles in the years ahead..Davis knew he was the right person to take his crown
This kid made me wanna watch snooker, he did stuff none else could or even dreamed!
Amazing talent, maybe he will win the world title some day

Stephen Hendry - most successful
Ronnie - most natural talent
Dennis Taylor - Best glasses
Great era of snooker!
What a gentleman dennis Taylor is
Thanks for the upload. :)
A star is born...
One of the all time greats
beginning of a legend
Little did mike Hallet know 4 years later he gets robbed by hendry in the masters after being 8-2 up. And his home was Robbed as well after the loss.
"Has anyone got a rope?"
@@heliumtrophy 😂😂😂
Is that Mike Hallett in the video? Anyone would think he was in Hendry’s corner😆. Hugging his Mum?!😄

Snooker in the 80s was magic
His eyes so focus
I started off like Stephen but in the sport of pinball. An absolute child prodigy at age 9 I could beat anyone in Canada. At age 14 I won my first world championship. The Guinness Book of Records still has won't recognize the record only Twin Galaxies for the youngest world champion on record.
I thought it was really kind of Stephen to give Dennis a 3 frame start...
Hendry of teenage is so sharp。
His best was as good or better than O'Sullivan. He dominated the sport like no other.
Better.
@@dafergy worse
Wow Dennis looks like he was old all his life 😅
Z jaką lekkością i płynnością szok gra
was that the "cue"?
his father is stan laurel.... fact
No, Stephens father was Gordon Hendry
Could see him becoming World champion after seeing him beat Parrot 5-2 here in Derby 87..3 years later he was!
Can't see Ronnie winning 7 world titles.
lakmeister only needs one more now
@@tullmonkey he didn't. Selby is the most likely to equal or beat 7
well he has now, it did take him 31 years though it took hendry 14. Hendry still the best for me. 5 consecutive world titles and 5 consecuive masters, deciding frame 147 the most centuries ever though osullivan has bettered some of these records he took far more tournaments and years to do so, and hendry century total includes many games where opponents knew to force a scrappy frame/ hendry invented what we consider snooker now ie. 1 visit snooker and will never likely be bettered and his rankung titles total was done with only average 6 per year for most of it. Ronnie is exceptional sometimes but has never been consistent enough to dominate like Davis or Hendry and has a terrible attitude for a so called gentlemans game.
Tony Knowles he’s gonna lose
Even at 18 years old he would've made a great commentator. Get him away from that table and into the commentary box!
That intro track is nothing Henry or anyone in the Caucasoidian Union would listen to 🤣🤣🥴. Music doesn't match video, music matches what OP only likes.
Davis humble in defeat, a tru gent is steve.
Probably just a flash in the pan victory I don't rate him.
AND YOU MADE A MASSIVE MISTAKE EH
Claire Bord he dont need ur opinion
😆
Fury was robbed
Don't like ian Doyle style.
He has s..... on Ronnie...
