John Higgins won his third snooker world title on Sunday.
This tournament’s been the hardest one I’ve ever seen so I do believe it’s a tremendous win for the scot. It’s doubled his value as a player in my eyes, and that value was pretty magnificent already. I am really happy for him and his gorgeous family. It was about time for John to get his third trophy.
And I do have to add that I’ve been highly pleased with Stephen Hendry’s 147 as well as with the quality of his game at this tournament. Good job, Mr. Hendry! Many more returns!
And, of course, congratulate Shaun Murphy for getting to the finals. I think it consolidates his reputation as the great player that he is.
Last, but not least, I think Mark Allen’s done an amazing job and I do hope it’s either him, Mark Selby or Ali Carter to win the trophy next time. They’ve been working real hard and I consider the following season to be their time to shine. Good luck, lads!
