Only thing that you can dislike here is that Jimmy didnt win it ever. Making 6 times straight to the finals and losing multiple times to Hendry, it must have felt horrible. May be in another dimension, he would have won 4 out of 6. Great Player. Love the guy
@@XaviRonaldo0 yeah same here. But hats off to his professionalism every time he congrats the champion wholeheartedly and you can see that in his face.
@@Capillus he wasn’t unlucky. Top class sport is about doing it under pressure and that black was a ball he’d pot every time at home. Love Jimmy, but he bottled it
Sure Reardon said when he won 3 in a row to get back to 15 each Higgins left the arena a loser and when he walked back in he looked like a winner again meaning whatever he took gave him a badly needed boost.
@@Buz-Lunch-Punx Maybe as a player. He seemed to be a foul person though going by what various players such as Taylor, Hendry and Davis have said about their experiences with him.
I really felt for Jimmy in 93, when he was 14-10 up, and Stephen Hendry then played unbelievable snooker to rattle off eight consecutive frames, and that nervous miss in 1994.
Pretty crazy how after 1989 Steve Davis would never appear in another World Final, after being so dominant in the 80's. No one would have predicted that, especially after Steve battered John Parrot in the 89' final.
Poor old Jimmy White , he was an absolutely stellar player but he just seemed to bottle it when he reached the Crucible Final . It's sorrowful to watch .
14:49 I could be imagining things but Hendry looked gutted for Jimmy here. Of course he wasn't going to hand him the match but this was Jimmy's 6th final loss. I would really love to be able to ask Stephen if this was the case. It's almost like he knew this would be Jimmy's last final.
You missed the People's Champion, Jimmy White, Winner or not, he is our Champion! 😉🏆, Great vid, was waiting for something like this to come out one day.
When Steve Davis first won it you can see him thinking about his first ever game on a snooker table, his first pro match, his first ever century, his first ever amateur win etc. It was all etched on his face immediately after that pink ball going down!
Its amazing to think that NO player has won the following year after winning it for the first time only Joe Johnson and Ken Doherty got to the final after winning it for the 1st time! My opinion is that winning the worlds for the first time must have affect on the brain that means they do not play as good the following year!
Stephen Hendry and ronny the rocket have 7 Time world champion! But ronny win one time more I am sure. He is world number 1. Snooker is popular because ronny the legend play. People loves him. For me ronny, shelby, trump, higgins and Robertson is now the kings of this sport! 👏💪🇸🇮

As soon as it came to Steve Davis the hints of modern style of playing snooker started showing. For me Steve Davis Stephen Hendry and Ronnie will always be the top statistically and mentally. Mark Williams Judd and Neil are the others that follow behind.
@@game4alaughman I understand. In addition to this, I want to know the name and location of the venue with the office (a general organization?) In the backyard, which often appear in other clips. The judge is a permanent venue with a judge on the replay monitor of the ball arrangement.
The records do speak for themselves. O'Sullivan's record breaking and longevity in the sport puts him at number 1 easily. My numbers 2, 3, 4 & 5 would be Hendry, J. Higgins, S. Davis and Trump in that order.
The best semifinal in history was betwen shelby and ronny. Shelby lead 16 a 14 But ronny is so cold with big presure because he now he can, t missed and do excelent Job and win last 3 frames and go to the final. What men is he. For this and more much thinks he is number 1 and most popular player off all time. And he will won one more title and came first player to win 8 champinship! Ronny the rocket sullivan! 🇸🇮💪👏
No bad player has ever won it so no one deserves to be labelled as "the worst". If you come through that 17 days and lift the trophy then you deserve to be remembered as a class player.
Definitely *not* John Parrott. John was extremely consistent. He made 11(!) quarterfinals. He won three of them, reached two finals and won once. Peter Ebdon made 10 QF's, 4SF's and three finals and won one of them. Even lesser known champions such as Dott and Bingham have a decent record: Dott made only 4 QF's, but he won 3 of them, won all his semis and won 1 out of 3 finals. Bingham made 5 QF's, 3 SF's and won his only final. The 'palest' records are: Johnson made just two QF's, made it to the final both times and won in 1985. Brecel has never won any match at the Crucible, *except* in his magical year 2023 when he won every match he played...

The People's Champion Jimmy White 🏆

@@warrevandewalle3626 hahahahahahaha. He’s no champion. Not good enough and an embarrassment of a career
Great moments, been fortunate to have seen all the great players since mid 1960's, met a few in person, great sport.

Yeah a dimension where he don't party with Coke Stevens during a tournament. He's only got himself to blame.
Nope, there is one more thing you shall dislike - the victory of Peter Ebdon in 2002. IMO he's the most undeserved snooker world champion.
Kinda feel bad for Jimmy White, lost 5 consecutive finals. But there can only be one winner.
I think even Hendry was gutted for him in '94
@@XaviRonaldo0 yeah same here. But hats off to his professionalism every time he congrats the champion wholeheartedly and you can see that in his face.
This actually proves that he was better than his opponents. He made it to five finals but he was unlucky.

I always wanted someone to make this video. Thank you for your job!!!
Thank you to support!
Thank you for the great video. Reminds me of my favorite, Stephen HENDRY, and my most favorite player, Ronnie O'SULLIVAN.
And thank you for your support!
Just played mark Williams on Saturday at my local club and he wooped me 🤣
I love how pleased the other guys are for the winner in the old days. Look at the look of utter joy on RR's face in '82 at Alex finally winning it.
I doubt it, Alex Higgins was a prick. Plus Higgins had already won it 10 years prior.
Sure Reardon said when he won 3 in a row to get back to 15 each Higgins left the arena a loser and when he walked back in he looked like a winner again meaning whatever he took gave him a badly needed boost.
@@MrGloryglorymanutd18 Higgins got some kind of boost in the dressing room. Probably listening to a motivational speaker or something like that
@@Anu_Sol Higgins was the greatest. Loved, admired and respected by all.

1992. And it was ten frames in a row.
@@neiledwards4923 Thanks. I’d forgotten that. I just recalled the score at the start of the final session and Stephen was unplayable.
Jimmy was his own worst enemy.
Pretty crazy how after 1989 Steve Davis would never appear in another World Final, after being so dominant in the 80's. No one would have predicted that, especially after Steve battered John Parrot in the 89' final.
It's such a shame Jimmy White and Matthew Stevens isn't on this list. Both really deserved at least one.
White, Stevens and Eddie Charlton are the three should-have-been-champions. All of them deserved to have won it at some point really.
Poor old Jimmy White , he was an absolutely stellar player but he just seemed to bottle it when he reached the Crucible Final . It's sorrowful to watch .
One of the greatest snooker videos here. Brilliant, thank you!
14:49 I could be imagining things but Hendry looked gutted for Jimmy here. Of course he wasn't going to hand him the match but this was Jimmy's 6th final loss. I would really love to be able to ask Stephen if this was the case. It's almost like he knew this would be Jimmy's last final.
Hendry looks a bit embarrassed to win. He does say a few years ago in an interview though he never felt sorry for Jimmy.
He was robbed of a 7th final by being put in the same half of the draw as Hendry in 1995.
Trust me. There was no sympathy from Stephen.
You missed the People's Champion, Jimmy White, Winner or not, he is our Champion! 😉🏆, Great vid, was waiting for something like this to come out one day.
Great moments!!! Great video...
Thank you very much for your support
When Steve Davis first won it you can see him thinking about his first ever game on a snooker table, his first pro match, his first ever century, his first ever amateur win etc. It was all etched on his face immediately after that pink ball going down!
Still honestly can't fathom how Graham Dott won the World Championship.
The 2006 World Championshaip that Dott won, was of a poor standard throughout.
Great Compilation of Snooker History! Thank you so mutch for that.

Thanks, man!
WOW!
I Really enjoyed this as it brought back so many wonderful memories.
Thank you so much for this amazing upload.
Thank you for your support :)
18-3 in the 1989 final wow
Yeah Jo had a hammering
Parrot got revenge by beating Davis in the 91 semi 17-10 and beat Jimmy in the final.
Great video.. Its funny how no one thought about it until now
Thanks for the support!
the 1978 championships looks like it was played at a funeral parlor.
Wonderful video! Thanks for all the memories!!
Jimmy White had the misfortune of being in his prime when 2 of the greatest players to ever play the game were in their prime.
Yes - he finally beat Davis at the Crucible in the 1990 semi-final and ran smack into the Hendry era!
thank you so much
And thank you for your support!
Steve Davis, you beauty!
Great video♥️
Great stuff.
13:34 British sports greatest what if moment
Apparently Ronnie wanted to win each world championship with a different hair style lol
What was the story in the 70's, first to 27 frames?
Its amazing to think that NO player has won the following year after winning it for the first time only Joe Johnson and Ken Doherty got to the final after winning it for the 1st time! My opinion is that winning the worlds for the first time must have affect on the brain that means they do not play as good the following year!
Great fact. I'll have to remember that for my quizzes.

Feel so sad for Jimmy, But it's the name of the game

8. Won 4, lost 4.

He has 15 triple crown titles but that still is only 3rd all time. Hendry has 18 and ronnie has 21
