  • 1 Stephen Hendry
    aus: Hugo Kastner: SNOOKER – Spieler, Regeln & Rekorde Update: März 2010 Ergänzung: Programmheft Stephen Hendry MBE – „Der Größte“ Geboren: 13. Januar 1969 in Edinburgh, Schottland Professional: seit 1985 High Break: 147 (8-mal) Höchstes Ranking: No.1 (1990/91, 1991/92, 1992/93, 1993/94, 1994/95, 1995/96, 1996/97, 1997/98, 2006/07) – Rekord Siege Ranking Turniere: 36 World Champion: 7-mal (1990, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1999) – Rekord Stephen Hendry gehört zu den Sportlern, die neben phänomenalem Talent auch unglaubliche Willensstärke und Kaltblütigkeit mitbringen. Gerade unter Druck läuft er zu Höchstform auf, nie gibt er sich mit guten 40 oder 50 Punkten zufrieden, sondern sieht fast nur im Abräumen des Tisches die wahre Perfektion. Seit seinem ersten Auftauchen als Professional hat Stephen Hendry praktisch alle Rekorde gebrochen, die es im modernen Snooker zu brechen gibt. Siebenmal wurde er World Champion, zudem als jüngster Spieler, dem dies im Crucible Theatre je gelang, achtmal konnte er ein Maximum auf den Tisch zaubern, mehr als 700 Century Breaks stehen in seiner Statistik zu Buche, und er führt auch überlegen die Liste der Rankingturniersieger an. Hendry schaffte 2002 sensationelle 16 Centuries in einem Turnier, er machte 1997 gegen Jimmy White als bis dahin einziger Spieler der Geschichte ein Maximum in einem Entscheidungssatz, und er war seit Einführung des neuen Ranglistensystems unerreichte achtmal in Serie die Nummer 1 der Welt. Kein Wunder, dass im goldenen Jahrzehnt des Schotten die Gegner schon eingeschüchtert waren, wenn Stephen auch nur den Turniersaal betrat. Dabei kam Hendry erst relativ spät zu diesem Sport. Zwei Wochen vor seinem 13.

  • Sporting Legends: Stephen Hendry
    SPORTING LEGENDS: STEPHEN HENDRY SPORT: SNOOKER COMPETITIVE ERA: 1984 - PRESENT Stephen Hendry MBE (born January 13, 1969, Auchterarder, Perthshire, Scotland) is a Scottish professional snooker player. Hendry has won the World Snooker Championships seven times, a record for the modern era, and is thus regarded by many as the greatest player of all time. Hendry started his career early. He was Scottish Amateur Champion at the age of 15, and turned professional aged just 16. Hendry first won the World Professional Snooker Championship in 1990 at the age of 21, becoming the youngest player ever to win the event. He went on to dominate the game in the 1990s. His most recent win in 1999 was his seventh, eclipsing rival Steve Davis's six modern era victories. Hendry holds several snooker records: He has earned more prize money than any other player (about £7 million); he has scored the most 147s (eight times), and is the only player to have scored a 147 in a major final, a feat he has achieved three times. He has compiled the most century breaks, currently over 660, and he holds the most ranking event titles (34). In 1990/1991, despite not winning the World Championships, he won an amazing five ranking events, a record for a single season. Hendry was ranked number 1 from 1990 to 1998 in a record breaking 8 season streak. Hendry was awarded an MBE in 1994 and voted BBC Scotland's Sports Personality of the Year in 1987 and 1996. SPORTING LEGENDS: STEPHEN HENDRY Stephen Hendry is a true snooker legend.

  • Snooker Superstar
    Snooker Superstar 1 Snooker Superstar 台球巨星 Star Profile – Ding Junhui 新星简介--丁俊辉 Read the text below and do the activity that follows. 阅读下面的短文,然后完成练习: If 2005 was the year that Ding Junhui exploded onto the international snooker scene, then 2006 could be the year he becomes a legend. Ding fulfilled his potential in a nail-biting confrontation with Steve Davis in the final of the prestigious UK Championship last December. He defeated the six-time world champion by 10 frames to 6 in a thrilling final at the Barbican Centre in York. In defeating Davis he has already secured a place in history as he is the first ever player from outside the British Isles to win the UK Championship. Having won his first prize in competitive snooker at the age of thirteen, Ding is unquestionably a precocious talent. It seems that he has now matured into a world-class player – “It was only a matter of time before he joined the world’s elite”, says Steve Davis. Ding’s talent has been developed by his father, Ding Wenjun who became aware of his son’s remarkable abilities when he was just eight years old. Ding Wenjun explains, “When I was playing with my friends, he was attracted by the colourful balls and would play by himself on another table for a whole day”. Many years of hard work and sacrifice followed as Ding’s father gave up his business and moved to Dongguan in order to find better training facilities for his son. Both father and son lived in cramped conditions, sharing a five- square-metre room adjoining the local snooker club.

  • Ronnie O?Sullivan
    Ressort: Sport-Nachrichten Eintausend Mal die Hundert: Ronnie O?Sullivan Preston, 11.03.2019 [ENA] Der Engländer hat im Preston Guild Hall, einmal mehr, Geschichte geschrieben: im letzten Frame des Coral Players Championship gewann er nicht nur den Titel. Er erzielte in seiner zuvor schon als beispiellos bezeichneten Karriere das 1.000ste Century-Break. Damit wird im Snooker das Übertreffen der Marke von 100 Punkten in einem Durchgang bezeichnet. Zugleich ist er heute wieder auf Rang 2 der Zwei-Jahres-Rangiste. Seine Profi-Karriere begann 1992. Zusammen mit Mark Williams und John Higgins gehört Ronnie O‘Sullivan eben deshalb der „Class of 92“ an, einem Jahrgang, der besonders viele Talente hervorgebracht hatte. Im Verlauf seiner nunmehr 26 Jahre währenden Karriere - welche er schon mehrfach für beendet erklärte, nur um etwas später wieder zurück zu kehren - erreichte er Höhen, die Kommentatoren ihn als den vollendetsten Spieler der modernen Ära bezeichnen liessen: er hält Rekorde, die vor ihm keiner erreicht hatte. Dem schnellsten Maximum-Break, jenen magischen 147 Punkten, die man in einem Spiel erreichen kann, in dem man alle 15 roten und die 6 farbigen Bälle in einem Durchgang abräumt. Bisher hat er davon sowohl die meisten geschafft, nämlich 15, wie auch den schnellsten, in knapp 5 Minuten. O‘Sullivan hält auch die meisten sog. Triple Crown Titel. Triple Crown bezeichnet die traditionell grössten Snooker-Turniere auf englischen Boden, die Weltmeisterschaften, die English Championship und das Masters. Ronnie hat davon 19, damit liegt er alleine an der Spitze vor Stephen Hendry. Insgesamt haben nur 10 Spieler es geschafft, alle drei Tourniere mindestens ein Mal zu gewinnen.

  • Willie Thorne - the Maximum Man by Elliott West
    Willie Thorne - The Maximum Man By Elliott West One of the greatest and nicest players in our sport is Willie Thorne. Name: Willie Thorne This lad from Leicester is probably one of the most gifted players Born: 4 March 1954 that the sport has ever seen. Now living in Spain, WT as we fondly Nationality: English call him, concentrates his time on golf and flies back for the Seniors Highest Break: 147 tour and the Welsh Open. Thorne was a gifted player from the offing, becoming an under-16 champion in 1970 and had a game that thrived on break building, century breaks and multiple 147’s in practice. He graced our sport in what was considered by many as the golden era of snooker, when audience figures went through the roof and the game had instantly recognisable characters. Sadly though and I hate to say this but I feel that WT should have won more. His only title was the Classic in 1985, a win that looks very lonely on a CV that had so much potential. Willie did however make the final of the UK Championship in 1985 and two quarter- finals at the World Championship in 1982 and 1986. His game is haunted by the blue he missed against Davis in that 1985 UK Championship when he led Steve 13-8, the miss in the final session was as they always are, the crunch ball, causing his ascendency to flounder, allowing Davis to win the match. Willie later recounted that he thought the blue was a certainty but concentration is key in snooker and the cardinal sin is to take your eye off the ball, as WT would now say from a commentator’s position.

  • John Parrott– the JP
    John Parrott– The JP Way By Elliott West Name: John Parrott John Parrott was a familiar face on the professional tour Born: 11 May 1964 throughout the late 1980’s and most of the 1990’s and Nationality: UK remained in the top 16 for 14 consecutive seasons. Highest break: 147 In early life John was a keen bowls player but soon gravitated to snooker becoming a promising junior player, winning the Junior Pontins Championship in 1981, the Pontins Open Championship and Junior Pot Black in 1982. The following year in 1983 John turned professional. Shortly afterwards in 1984 he made his first breakthrough in the professional game when he went deep into the Classic, beating Alex Higgins and Tony Knowles before losing to Steve Davis in the semi-final. His talent was duly spotted and he was tipped to become a World Champion within the next 5 years. It actually took him 7 years when he proudly held the trophy aloft in 1991 and also won the UK Championship later that year. A mean feat but the Masters always alluded him, losing three times to Hendry in the final. He also qualified for the World Championship a remarkable ten times and also achieved nine ranking titles in his career. John carried on playing until his retirement in 2010 and has since been a permanent feature of the BBC events, working as a pundit and commentator. John is also a keen golfer and horse racing goer. He always seems a placid and jovial character off the table but on it he was a ferocious player, attacking when he had to be and a master of safety play.

  • Tony Knowles
    Tony Knowles - Fondly known as Knowlesy By Elliott West Tony Knowles is one of the iconic players of the golden years of snooker Name: Tony Knowles and played all the game’s greats in the 1980s. This quietly spoken, gentle Born: 13 June 1955 giant with an infectious grin first started playing snooker at the age of nine Nationality: England and was always destined for the heady heights of the sport. I have lucky Highest Break: 139 enough to meet Tony and shared some time with him during an exhibition match in Kent with my good friend Joe Johnson. A raconteur of the old days,” Knowlesy“ as we like to call him, is a master of the game, knowing every shot and angle there is on a snooker table and his trick shots are unbelievable. Knowles first made his name in snooker when as a qualifier he defeated the iconic Steve Davis in the first round of the World Championship in 1982. Davis was on a momentous winning streak at the time, having convincingly won the 1981 World Championship. However the lad from Bolton was not phased by this Romford kid and produced some of his best snooker in the match, ending it with a 10-1 drubbing over Davis. This match left Steve reeling and is equal in defeats to the 1985 World Championship black ball win by Dennis Taylor. Like so many in the sport, it is frustrating that Tony didn’t win big in snooker and all the top titles eluded him for his playing career. However there was silverware on the way on his illustrious career path.
