there's no doubt about it his Standard of play is still top 32 standard despite not really competing But thats would never satisfy Hendry for the next 5 years without competing for Major Titles

So Steve Davis has Grinded himself in to the final where he will play either Nigel Bond or Stephen Hendry

Hendry and Davis have met each other 66 times over 26 years.

They first met back in 1987 with Davis winning 5 of their first 6 Matches.

Head to Head
Hendry 44 Wins
Davis 20 Wins
Draws 2

I think he changed his mind after lifting that trophy. He clearly enjoyed the occasion, his performance and the celebrations.

I know but what's your point? I enjoyed seeing Steve play well and win a trophy. It's the first title he won since 1997 and I can't see a reason why we all can't just be happy for him without constantly insisting that it was a pointless event.

Wilds just in the huff cos Hendry didn't win it and Sonny loathes anything with a shot clock so is always going to be negative towards it <ok>
