1) Dennis Taylor appeared in six ranking event finals
2) Alex Higgins made his highest World Championship break (137) in the 1995 qualifiers against Tai Pichit
3) Ken Doherty's old club was Jason's
4) Fergal O'Brien won the 1999 British Open in Plymouth
5) Stephen Hendry featured in seven Irish Masters finals
Taylor was in 2 world, 2 rothmans and a Jameson final. What was his other?
ReplyDeleteI know Hendry beat him 9-3 in China but I dont think that was a ranker
ReplyDeleteThe 1990 Asian Open was a ranking event
ReplyDeleteWas Jameson ranking? Wasn't it World only until 1982?
ReplyDeleteYes, but Dennis was in three Grand Prix finals
ReplyDelete84, 85 and ?
ReplyDeleteHe lost in 87 to some bloke called Stephen Hendry
ReplyDeleteNever heard of him Dave
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten the 87 final.
ReplyDeleteShould have remembered as I was living in London at the time. My telly was broken so had to go to the pub to watch the snooker.
Maybe thats why I forgot. lol
Surely the answer to question one has to be 'not as many as Dennis would have you believe'
