To me i think its Stephen Hendry

Ronnie O'Sullivan

ok, here lets get a question link going...

ronnie o sullivan or stephen hendry ?

ronnie although achievements wise hendry wins.

Higgins

what about for the next decade, i think mark allen

Steve Davis - 1980's
Stephen Hendry - 1990's
Ronnie O'Sullivan - 2000's
JAMIE COPE - 2010+

My overall favourite ever is Hendry just got the whole package great sportman and what a player!

But I like it now the young players are becoming more known around the circuits Mark Allen jamie Cope marko fu there's alot of potential with the up and coming and can't wait to see what they can all produce!

Jamie Cope only person get a 155 in practice

And he's also a Stokie

agree Si... Ronnie has got no care in the world about it, but deep down he probably does, like he had a 147 in the world open.. he said he never wanted it... but why play for position on the black then

Joe that might be why I love Jamie yes lmao

And buzby he wants the world to think he doesnt care when obviously he does otherwise he wouldnt storm out if he loosing or loose his temper hes got alot of passion just can't show it in the right way

me

Tough one this...

Ronnie has more ability than any other player but Hendry had the whole package.

Davis is incredible to still be playing at the level he is at his age and John Higgins can still win another 2 world title IMO.

But for me greatest ever player? Hendry.

Luca Brecel will be the main youngster to watch and also Jack Lisowski and i'm sure there will be more and more Chinese kids come through.
The next person to dominate the game will be a player from China IMO.

Steve Davis or Dennis Taylor

luca brecel is good, i know a couple of players around where i live that are 13/14 that are making centuries left right and centre

Where i love dont you mean live lol

what about best player never to win at the crucible??


jimmy white all the way

Joe Davies

Being Welsh I have to say Mark Williams

was that the one where the ref asked him to finish it even though he didnt want to?

Stephen Hendry purely on his number of acheivments and his overall dominace on the game. My favourite player is Ronnie. I think he could have been the best but he lost allot of tournaments he should have won(recent 1's that come to mind masters vs Mark selby). For what ever reason Ronnie has lost tournements due to depression, frustration or just being the sports "rebel". Another player i think is close to all time best is John Higgins. Of late he seems unstoppable and you have to wonder who can beat him on his day and how many more tournaments he will win. What makes it more unbelievable is he's doing all this in his later years in the sport.
