[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1069781, member: 74121"] Thought I'd dip into the generic snooker thread 15 years after the last post. The move to a shorter match format for major tournaments 5 or so years ago has started to reinvigorate my love for the sport. Happy as Larry just now watching my two favourite players Robertson (Aus) and William's (Wales). 2 matches ago Williams played a decisive shot one handed to entertain the crowd. In his last match, he and his opponent got a 3min standing ovation before the start of the final frame by 2,000 fans such was the quality of the match (combined with a sense of euphoria at crowds being allowed back). This season it's hard tournaments won by a Belgian and a Chinese, so the sport looks to be slowly internationalising. The average age of players is still a bit on the old side given a trio of legendary players from 30 years ago still having excellent eyesight, but overall the sport looks in pretty rude health.
