I’ve been watching the snooker and recalled my highest break was 14. It is said that the best club players are unlikely to score a 100 break in their lifetime. Ronnie O’Sullivan scored his first 100 break when he was 10. We tend to equate genius with intelligence. Is this level of skill genius?

The snooker this pm was brilliant. Glad the Chinese lad got a bit together at the end. Hope Selby/Allen is a bit more exciting this evening.
P.S. my highest break was 49 in the days when a half century would have got a round of applause. Hey ho!!

Never ceases to amaze me how they are so skilled in placing the cue ball exactly where it should be for the next shot, or in the region of. Terrific ball control, glad that Brecel beat the Chinese boy.

Nice to see a new name winning things - should keep the rest on their toes - and taking headlines away from the Chinese cheats.
