Taylor was in 2 world, 2 rothmans and a Jameson final. What was his other?

I know Hendry beat him 9-3 in China but I dont think that was a ranker

The 1990 Asian Open was a ranking event

I'd forgotten the 87 final.

Should 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
