Todays players don’t have Hendrys bottle

Seen so many comments about who's the GOAT, It was Alex Higgins tbh, and the rest just passed the torch lit by Alex, imo he brought light to this game out of the clubs and streets He'll never be forgotten, no offence to any other player they all legend in their own time

Started at 12 years old and was champion at 16 lol all from his dad buying him a snooker table.

Ronio Ronio Ronio is the Best in the world all time. He is a rocket 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 Love you Sir😊❤️💐🙏🏆🏅🌹🌹🌹

Franco and Arnold are they were a pair THEY WERE THE GREATEST EVER ❤

Snooker on silk

If your chief criteria is dominance for a sustained period, I would have to agree with this. Hendry was untouchable for 8-10 years. Ronnie was never that. But that would all be only for the modern era. Steve Davis would have a case from the 80's, but Joe Davis is miles ahead of EVERYONE on any criteria really, including dominance (15 world titles!). Modern fans don't seem to know a whole lot about him though!

So relaxing to watch, ready for kipping now

Untouchable. Cold killing machine. Best ever. Ronnie O'Sullivan is a genius for what he is still doing to this day and such a natural but Stephen Hendry is Snooker. What a beast absolutely schooled Selby here.

says who ronnie o sullivan has also won 7 world chanpships like call it as it is ..........................

Brilliant - Only 3 players ever to CHANGE the game of Snooker - Joe Davis (Inventor of the modern stun snd screw game) - Steve Davis (Technique) & Stephen Hendry (Pioneer of 1 visit frames) Many other brilliant players but it is only these 3 players that everyone copied. RoS is the most talented but he took what the others did and took it to new heights, he did not change anything

i loved watching this maestro at work...miss it so much..

Good break but very fortunate to land on that easy plant when he came off the side of the pack when he played into the pack on another day you land on nothing there and it's end of break

An assassin on the snooker table.

Virtually all the pots were clean and didn’t touch the jaws, brilliant

King

At his best he was like a ufc fighter he’s battered them all into submission remember when Ronnie quit against hendry half way through the match because he knew he had no chance no matter what he did that’s what he done to them all they were all scared of his talent true legend

Yeah Hendry changed the game but so to did Alex and Jimmy. Alex, Jimmy then Stephen changed the game completely, then came Ronnie etc.

It's how he got the black in play from that easy blue he created! It cant be done better.

Lethal, and scary.

Ronnie the best ever now after getting 7 world titles at the age of 46 and in a harder era.ronnie 1 hendry 2 Higgins 3

NOPE! IT RONNIE NOW-2022

9:08 *Still reminds me of Stan Laurel !*

*Hold your Beer - Ronnie in Final 2022 for sure !*

If ever you had to make a statue for planet Earth's snooker of a player cueing up, it would be that of Stephen Hendry. ICONIC ! , Awesome break building machine

No one dominated snooker over a 10 year timeframe like hendry did in the 90s. It took Ronnie 30 years to equal the records made by hendry in ten. That's why hendry is the goat.

I would like to build a 12‘ x 24‘ snooker table, It would be the same in every way only bigger and have O’Sullivan and Hendry to play, I think they would like it.

greatest champion

Ronnie

But not the greatest to watch

No. The best of all time is O'Sullivan. No doubt.

My idol

The beast player off olle time

I realise Hendry prob lost this game as he's way past his prime. But the idea that Selby a sold safety player could dominate Hendry in his golden days is nonsense. Hendry would demolish him at his peak. Safety is all well and good but you can't stop this kind of breakbuilding. Just ask Davis. I respect Selby but he was not in the same class as this man.

The king 👑

He's great!...

Davis done that first, sorry.

Hendry may be the second best player of all time but he's clearly not the best.

Sorry Ronnie's the greatest. Hendry's not far behind though!

Stephen hendry looks like amir khan the bollywood actor

Ronnie the greatest and most entertaining snooker player.

Hendo O'Sullivan and Higgins...after that it's open...

Ronnie the Rocket O'sullivan is the GOAT.😎

Hendry was the best around at the time, a great player and certainly a player who changed the game, he raised the bar significantly and only a few players around at that time could compete with him, Jimmy White being his main opposition. Its ridiculous to measure how good a player is by just when they were successful. Players like John Higgins, Mark Williams have shown longevity, they are still competing at the top and that (to me) makes them better players than somebody who ruled the roost with little competion for only a brief period. The bad news for Hendry was his time at the top was brief due to his successor Ronnie O'Sullivan appearing on the scene, O'Sullivan effectively retired Hendry, pushing the game to a whole new level which Hendry couldn't achieve. If it were possible to actually sit down and be objective about snooker players Hendry would probably be in the top 10 of all time. Hendry was the man to beat for a decade and luckily for him there were only a few capable of doing so. O'Sullivan remains the man to beat for more than 25 years although it seems to me his days are numbered. Judd Trump looks like the player to take the game to the next level but it will be matched and exceeded in time. Like all sports, snooker evolves, players get better and better, the standard is always rising and thesedays with quite some momentum. Statistics are only what we want them to be, what we include or exclude in statistics is a manafactured statistic. Theres lies, theres 'damn' lies and then theres statistics. If you do require a statistic, have a look at the Head To Head with Hendry Vs OSullivan

Always you hear, who is the best snooker player of all time ? Hendry or O'Sullivan. But real snooker experts came to conclusion that the best snooker player of all time John Higgins 'The Wizard of Wishaw' is. Anyway. .. If we have to talk about the big 3 ? For sure John Higgins is 1 of them. I really love to watch the way how John Higgins plays the game. A legend who still plays snooker on a verry high level.

For me Ronnie is the GOAT ,he took the game to the next level his depression hampered his game probably would have won 10 WC only for it .ON his best day he can still beat all the guys on the tour ...

Hendry disrespected Selby

Shelby is the one boring player you don't want to see play .

Hendry was a callossus. Imperious at one point. However, there is not another player lived to be as naturally gifted as Ronnie Osullivan. Not an opinion. Its an OBSERVATION. Its a count of major trophies, century and maximum breaks recorded.

100% the GOAT
