John is the ultimate frame stealer, more than any other player, if they've got 62 and there's 63 on John will come in and snatch it up, it's the reason he's one of the most decorated players of all time, pure persistance

Dear Mr Hendry I’ve been a fan of yours for over 2 decades, you changed the game like no other, you were the epitome of what a prolific break builder is, although im not a snooker a player, however I suffered from the same thing that you did, except it was for baseball and to be exact it was pitching, the infamous “yips” its annoying as hell, i was at the top of my game and i started caring subconsciously. Thats when the yips started happening, it lasted for a few years very psychological, I had a mental block however when I stopped caring my yips went away! And I know that you can overcome this also, im a average baseball player with a winning mentality and you are a champion with a even greater winning mentality! Snooker needs you! We need you please make a comeback! You are the only person that can beat Ronnie and make this rivalry fun again! Best regards your biggest fan Phil

John Higgins You Still got t !!! i said it already i just knew John Higgins was always the man to beat this tough table challenge . Congrats John Higgins still able to produce the goods when it matters , Just totally incredible to have Judd in the background an old legend champion showing the upcoming champion he is still not done by a long way , so easily could have been a clear up or ton break if no distractions just do not see anyone topping that score 87 but this has to inspire other players to at least give it a valid effort . Absolutely Brilliant Video Stephen totally right up there with the best you have ever done liked and still subscribed leaves me wanting more its that good . cheers !

Love the way Stephen acknowledges that people complain about him talking during the tough table challenge.. & yet NEVER shutup 😂😂 zero f**ks given !! Love it !! 😂

Super break, super content.....super channel. Keep it up

Loved it! Thought he mite get a ton break there!!

I miss those games when i was younger and playing john and alan and drew back in the day amazing

Superb break from John -well done! Would have loved to have seen a century, but it just shows how hard it is.

Brilliant. Loved it

i was on the edge of my seat the whole time great effort

I can’t tell you the joy this brings me. John has always been my hero in snooker alongside yourself Stephen, to hear the fun and personality behind the genius and dedication is phenomenal. I only wish my Uncle Ron who introduced me to the world of snooker was still with us to enjoy these videos with me. Keep up the great content.

This was single-handedly the best advertisement break I’ve ever seen on KZread, well done!

Brilliant stuff. Well done John.

Lovely hearing some Celtic questions

Brilliant well done lads

John needs to be on here more love the chemistry between them

Class John!

Brilliant 👏🏻

Gonna see these guys and DT next month. Can't wait 😊

If anyone was going to beat Stephen, it was John. All time fave and amazing player.

Love your channel.

Got to love John Higgins, seem like a great guy and still a class act on the table. Great work keep it up

That was a brilliant break. Guy is master.

Legend 🙌🏻

Stunning Inch Perfect as JV would say

So cool, so casual

Loved that

Realistically, the only player who could beat both Stephen Hendry or Ronnie O'Sullivan when they were playing at their very best... Perhaps the perfect game for professional snooker? Higgins had zeroed in on what was aggression and defense. People have come close, but at his peak Higgins could win with both his A & B game, something that's so hard to do in snooker...

Brilliant watch, Stephen. If you do read these or if john reads them, id love 5o catch up with John again some time. Used to play with him eve4y week in team matches and we used to play at the masters in Wishaw before we moved to glasgow. But it was too much for me because i worked late sometimes etc. So gave the game up. 33 years on and I've just picked the cue back up again. I remember John Muir still kept going through with John and Dennis Masterton. This was back in the day when John's dad run him everywhere. I remember when John won the world for the first time and they interviewed the woman from the masters in wishaw who btw didn't give either of us free time to play even when we were playing team games. Th3n me and John used to go play the puggy machine and i had to kid on it was me playing it because she used to shout over to John to get off it 😂😂😂😂. Introduced him to the cambusneathan miners guys and my dad because he still hadn't met him. But ive hon3tly not seen him in about 33 years. Would love a few frames again and grab a game of golf now and then. Some good memories playing against Alan McManus too who played out the Davis club in Hamilton... Ian Nicol from Lanark at the time. Cheers.

Love it.

Wow. Great performance by John.

Funny how Stephen was trying to tilt John but at the end had to accept something comforting like "ok, two Scotts in the top of the leaderboard".

Finally!

When Higgins has got the tongue rolling, you know he is ON!

Top break !

Lol Higgins being out of breath playing snooker 😂👏🏽

John Higgins - a man with very active mind. I reckon he could've 147'd this with ease. Looks like he always plays in his mind first, then second, depending on what his mind has decided - allows his talent to shine.

Top quality stuff again Stephen. Love these table challenges and great to see John top of the table just like his beloved hoops. 😁

to be his age and still one of the greats is class to watch brilliant stuff

There's a reason why you can ask so many snooker players if you needed someone to clear a table who would you bet on they say Higgins. Not a clearance but incredible control and match winning score from there.

Enjoyable. Higgins has superb cue ball control.

Good lad Higgins, seen him around sheffield always smiley, not arrogant at all and loved going around the city for a pint and a curry. Doherty as well, 2 True gentleman of the sport. Barry Hearn also gave a big smile and a handshake and spoke for a couple of minutes. Asked Ronnie for a picture once and in the cockneyest accent ever he said ‘I don’t taykee pictures mayte’

Rasson table innit! Seriously though, what an outstanding performance.

I prefer when they take it seriously like this instead of just joking about "how tough it is" like others have done 🙂

Awwwww I was convinced John was gonna clear up he was close just took his eye off that red to middle I feel. Top of the board though.

Higgins was riled like hell that he played perfectly on the green only to see Hendry not honour his mistake and move it back on its spot! Hahaha!

Love the bit where you drink the AG1, film it with a potato and record the audio under a sink.

My favourite video yet! John seems such a normal guy and it’s so good to see

祝你贏得更多冠軍🏆，John!

Stuff the AG1. Just eat a fish supper, with broon sauce and washed down with an Irn Bru! 😂
