As well as beating some pro players, the lass was beaten more often by "Club Players" than she had victories over pro's.<br />I have watched both Allison and her friends Karen Corr and Kelly Fisher compete and then disappear to America.<br />Ladies snooker will always be a great apprenticeship for American pool. All three girls have been champions at pool but not here in Blighty against ex-snooker players. Mr hey you<br />Ps Having a heavy upper structure in women is no longer an excuse for inferior skill, there is an alternative "Stance and Balance” that can be adopted.
