Willie Thorne missing the blue against Davis. You could see him unravel the moment it happened

Same here but add the fact from the other side that MJW lost from 9-5 up and at one point having mathematically won, as well.

It's still a great tournament, but it's like comparing a handjob to a top-class shag.

Steve Davis beating Alex Higgins in 1984 final was probably my worst moment ever in Snooker. i was 13 at the time and back then going to school without bragging rights was torture. Snooker was on everyone's lips on the Monday after the final

Higgins winning vs MJW from seemingly being down and out in 2010. Never liked him anyway...

The snake hiss poor quality of the 2017 and 2018 Championships where it was clear who was going to win very early on

There was a clip can't find it now of Dave Harold missing the same snooker 10 times during the 1998 UK Championship against Mark Williams called 'Very Bad Snooker'.
