As great as o sullivan is and hendry nothing beats the experience of watching jimmy with the masters crowd behind him, the best thing in snooker for me.
Had O'Sullivan made that red at 2:18 the crowd would have went wild. People don't take into account the hammering Hendry's mental health took during the late 90s and early 00s when everyone hated him for winning so much. Weird considering the more Ronnie wins the more people love him.
Hendry was like a machine, a robot in his prime. Said very few words. The que did the talking. Ronnie is a great champion of the people. But not the People's Champ. We know who that is.
Why does everyone have to be silent 'surely it wouldn't matter look at darts there singing shouting cheering 'I know it's a big difference but I can't see it makes any difference 'in my club people are talking drinking farting everything it doesn't put me off
@@PointNemo9 Nah mate, Stephen Hendry's world titles all came in the final against Jimmy " the choker " White. Ronnie miles better than Hendry, even Hendry said it.
@@ValeNunoRossi46 No, only 4 of them were against White, who was a better player than Hawkins, Dott or Carter. Ronnie would have been the best ever if he was less of a mental nutjob.
@@ValeNunoRossi46 A big difference to the "all" you were referring to. Ronnie would have been the greatest but he was his own worst enemy with his mental state. He could have won 10 titles if he was all there in the head.
@@leeredford1028 Hendry would've considered any season to be poor if he didn't win the world title. He did win a ranking event and reach the final of the UK and Masters, however.
so, i see the commentators have taken up the american sports commentators' penchant for never shutting up just so they can hear their own yak boxes going off inanely. which is why i stopped watching matches post 1980s. yak yak yak and disturbing an otherwise meditative sport. ugh
The commentary is to much! Why are they talking so much!! There talking absolute shit! Why they talking about David vine ?? Taylor comes across as a nasty fake little man and when someone like Higgins doesn’t like you you know he’s a horrible little shit people like Higgins are very straight up! He’s only here because of one game against Davis ! It’s like two old women commentating

Yes - the people's champion ....Ronnie is a legend but not a people's champion too much of an dis-likeable attitude over the years.
@@hensmithers9687 you have to be be champion to be a people's champion
@@vinnydurham8964 Jimmy is a multiple champion you ill-educated imbecile
I can hear why Willie Thorne was so beloved. He really spoke his mind.

People did support hendry alot as soon as he was not quite as dominant.
@@prezz1257 he wasn’t as much as an entertainer and media darling as o’Sullivan is
Willie Thorne absolutely superb knowledgeable not scared to say if someone hits a poor another best commentator snooker has had
Big Wimbledon Jite and the Stefan Heend. Classic moments.
How's the pace on the cue ball? Does he really need to ask? Jimmy White hardly had to do anything the cue ball and it would keep running.
Why does everyone have to be silent 'surely it wouldn't matter look at darts there singing shouting cheering 'I know it's a big difference but I can't see it makes any difference 'in my club people are talking drinking farting everything it doesn't put me off
I think he's hair there is better than now
Pity he couldn't beat him in Sheffield.
carlo gambino 1998 first round
I mean't in the final.
@@calumjones9265 1st round lol... lost 4 finals you twonk...
Oh white indeed defeated hendry ......but hendry is the best player ever to pick the que until 2002
Until 2019

Jimmy also beat Stephen in the first round of the 1998 World Championship
Ross was luck!
Was a bad year for hendry 98 tho....he didnt do much that season... he'd admit it was a very poor season by his standards...
@@leeredford1028 Hendry would've considered any season to be poor if he didn't win the world title. He did win a ranking event and reach the final of the UK and Masters, however.
@@maurocasali4476 Yeah of course, Jimmy only won 10-4. I guess it was luck in 1988 as well when he beat Hendry in the worlds in a classic match.
Ross ok..I’m sorry, Jimmy is a champion and was only unlucky to lose 6 finals,
He will definitely win it next year unless he’s unlucky....
13:49 am I the only one who heard the cue ball snick the pink?
Just video quality, no foul
@@jourdontempleton8771 i heard it in other places later. I think it could also be a commentator mike.
I hate it says 4 years ago it's fucking 20 years ago why can't they get it right for once
Both played same as beginners played so badly
When else did jimmy beat Stephen . ?
He beat him lots of times......he was actually the first person to beat Hendry twice in the World Championships.
Stephen beat him to the world championship
white has beaten hendry in a final..
Ive only seen this one and first round of worlds, but he has beaten him quite a lot, even comfortably a couple of times.
@@MyCharlesgreen which final? def not a wc final
Thorne annoys me glad he's gone, all he does is criticise never won any major tournaments
The mercantile credit classic ! Mr maximum my arse . Never made one in competition
No I know but thousand in practice apparently where they don't count 🤣
SavageArfad that comment was made well before his death and referred to his exile from commentary
And Marc Thomlinson he actually made one in the 1987 UK I found out recently
so, i see the commentators have taken up the american sports commentators' penchant for never shutting up just so they can hear their own yak boxes going off inanely. which is why i stopped watching matches post 1980s. yak yak yak and disturbing an otherwise meditative sport. ugh
Pockets MacCartney god I bet your a scream on a night out ....
good one, and, probably not.
@Storm Woods : Volume button, volume button . . hmmm
You can see why jimmy loses as he just takes silly crazy shots that don’t make sense! His snooker iq is low!
Yeah but in his prime his audacious shots came off. He makes far more easy unforced errors than he did when he was younger.
Jimmy always seemed to go for one shot too many.
The commentary is to much! Why are they talking so much!! There talking absolute shit! Why they talking about David vine ?? Taylor comes across as a nasty fake little man and when someone like Higgins doesn’t like you you know he’s a horrible little shit people like Higgins are very straight up!

The only people who liked Alex Higgins are those who never met him.
