It is correct! If you do a Head to Head on CueTracker, this info comes up automatically (to two decimal places no less!):

Oh yeah
Well that’s 5 minutes of time I’ll never get back

Actually Judd having the strongest century to frame rate rings a bell. Pretty sure there’s a thread on this somewhere.
We could go down a bit of a rabbit-hole with this one. Was it easier to make tons when Hendry was at his peak? Or is it easier now? It's bigger pockets Vs lighter balls and faster cloths, isn't it?
It's a difficult one, and I do not know the answer.

I know I digged up the % of 50+ breaks (and later the 60 of 70+ breaks as well, as they're more important than just centuries to win a frame) some time ago, but I can't find the thread back right now. I'm useless at searching the forum...
This is all I can find back: 2000 - 2020, too late for Hendry era though but look at trump only in top two at 14/15 and 19/20 season (and probably also 20/21 and 21/22 but don't know)

I've put pretty even, but would pick Hendry if I had to pick one.
I'd see matches going both ways between the two.

I think they would have a lot of close matches, but I think Hendry would edge their head to head slightly. There would be a lot of long red and clear up sort of frames, so whoever’s long potting was better on the day would likely win.

I voted for pretty even. But I think now I should have voted for Hendry. I think he just shaves it.

They would obviously meet in so many big matches. Who would have the upper hand and beat the other guy more?
Trump by far, he probably wins 70% of their matches, if not more.
Hendry simply lacks the safety and tactical game.

My opinion is that until the late 90s he didn’t have the level of pressure of players who could regularly beat him and not bottle it in a big final, combined with the fact he already had every record, like he mentioned today subconsciously eased off and it was all over bar a few minor rankers
