      This was one frame. Max breaks don't win games. Consistency does. And let's be honest women don't really exist in snooker. She's the best example, she dominated women snooker world and it's been years for her constantly on top. Great accomplishment, obviously. But then she can't have a single word against top tier men snooker players with the best accomplishments of not losing so hard. I don't think Ronnie even took that match seriously, tbh.

      I can do constant breaks between 45 and 56 is my highest and I don't know how people can play in front of crows , our club isn't massive but few people would watch an instantly it put me off.
      Ronnie and Steven Hendry are my hero's, when Hendre was basically a baby in snooker but beating everyone my nan would wake me up to come watch I loved it cos was always early am games.
      But there was one guy who I thought this guy is going to be the best, from my town, Paul hunter, I don't remember who he played might have been Hendry or osullivan but he came back like 9 frames to win the championship , I was like how is he doing this and so focused and in the interview it was something like "my head had gone, I knew I'd lost but we had an intermission and I just thought well might as well bang the mrs backstage"
      😂 when he went back to the table he just became a super human, gone too soon that lad 😔
