After Hendry lost in the previous years final to Doug Mountjoy, he's back again this time v current World Champion Steve Davis. Presented by David Vine with Ray Edmonds also in the studio.
Great match, commentary with John and Clive priceless.
David vine and that theme tune. I miss the old days and the characters that played..
stephen hendry is the reason i play snooker today my all time favorite player and the best ever in my eyes, what a player that young man was
The body languages from both of them in that interview at the end is priceless.

Ray is ahead of his time when talking about about the psychology side, not worrying about what's happen in the frame but focusing on the next, which why they both Hendry and Davis won so many titles
Huge turning point in Stephen's favour in this final. Interestingly Steve should have won their 1990 UK final clash 16-14 but poor position by Steve cost him that epic final. Even if Steve had of won the 1990 final, Stephen had the mindset to overcome this type of defeat. I was always a Steve Davis supporter, and at the time I didn't like Stephen much but have to admit that he was a class act and was the perfect player to take over the number 1 mantle. Both were truly great champions in their heyday.
What a gent Steve was!
Joint interviews, bring them back I say
I first watched this live with my nan and grandad when I was 16, where did the time go.
People always used to call Steve Davis boring in the 80s but his interviews are hilarious.
He's actually a very Funny Guy!
A real changing of the guard moment.
Constant coughing from the crowd ... when you really tune in it is relentless like sheep
Your right, it was terrible, they should give out mints as they come into the arena.
I can be wrong but i think hendry at his best had a better long pot then o'sullivan
Hendry's long game was phenomenal
@@alexdonaldson1087 yes especially bhind the balk line
Bigger pockets back then and far weaker opposition.
@@GHOSTDOG637 Measured the pockets on your computer screen have ya or just repeating a truism? During Hendry's career he played and regularly beat Williams, Higgins, and ROS - who are still pretty much the best players now. So how was the opposition 'far weaker'? Yes, the strength in depth is greater now, but that bares little relevance to the latter stages of tournaments. Think before you type...
You're not wrong. Actually, if Ronnie has a relative weakness, it's from distance. Add to that his sometimes fragile mentality and a prime Hendry is a real threat to any version of ROS...
Hendry would of course go on to win the 1990 world title, take over the world no.1 from Davis and dominate the 90s
Did they give the highest break prize money to Steve Davis? It says on Wikipedia that Stephen Hendry scored the highest break of the 1989 UK Championship a 141.
The end of an era
@road of snooker finals I think what he meant was changing of the guard, ie Hendry taking over from Davis!🙂
@@digeme69 Great upload thank you! Do you have the 1994 world semi final between Hendry and Davis please, someone has uploaded but they have only uploaded up to 11-9, any chance of the full match please?
@road of snooker finals Yes when Ronnie came along he was certainly competition for Hendry but by the time Ronnie won his first UK title against Hendry in 1993 Stephen Hendry had already won 3 World titles and Hendry won all his World titles in the 90s. Ronnie never won the Worlds until 2001.
@@williamyohananlavi9598 Sorry I don't currently have it, to be honest the majority of the stuff I have is from the 80s to very early 90s
@@digeme69 yeah...shame we never saw prime Ronnie, Davies and Hendry at the same time. As one phased out the next one came along...I never got the sense ech pne played each other in their prime time.
Like Federer. Rafa and Novak all peaked at the same time
20 Yr old hendry remarkable....
Yet a 17 year old Ronnie beat remarkable Hendry 4 years later....
Hendry battered Ronnie in the 90's. Ronnie only got going when peak Hendry stepped aside.
@@mick5435 Nonsense. Ronnie battered Hendry most times in the 90s, Ronnie was pumping Prime Hendry as a 17 year old in major UKC final in 92. He leads Hendry 9-4 finals and 30-21 H2H. There is nothing you do to change that fact, It is what it is. Deal with it!
@@mick5435 Only beat when peak Hendry step aside? Ronnie forced Hendry to step aside! Prime Ronnie destroys Prime Hendry by Hendry's own admission
Hendry was just starting to find his stride, watch out 1990's, here he comes.
That was Stephen at about his best there.best of all I would say.davis was playing very well too
Stephens quite quick here.
what was their final H2H record?
67 Matches, Hendry 45 Davis 20 and 2 draws
Indeed
great safety shots from both
Hendry the greatest ever 💯
Not even top 3
1)Ronnie
2)Selby
4)Higgins
is it just me or do the reds turn green when they get to far end of table???.. actually all the balls turn green at far end of table!!
Ffs ....All the 'coughing' in the audience...No bloody wonder we have 'Covid' now 😬🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤬😡
😅😂😅 it's just a cold 🥶 no need for to shut us down having lockdown and so on
Covid was rife even in 1989
Lung cancer was.
