Stephen , out of all the videos you've made i have to say that this one was the best. Stripped back to bare bones , knocking balls in , just like you were in the club.....i felt like i was there with you! Brilliant.

You’re an absolute British sporting legend and was the very best for many years. Now you’re the best pundit / commentator in the game. You still have plenty to offer the sport. I also think you’d make a damn fine coach. You’re a credit to the game Stephen. I’ve had to edit this because there seems to be loads of Ronnie fangirls in here arguing about who the goat is. My comment wasn’t intended to incite war. I simply said that Hendry is a snooker legend and still has loads to offer snooker. I love Ronnie and without question he’s the greatest ever and his records will never be bettered. He’s my favorite player and watching him play the game is like witnessing an artist paint a masterpiece. Even Stephen acknowledges that Ronnie is the goat. But I was commenting on Stephen’s video so I spoke about him and him only. Hendry is still a sporting legend whether you agree or not.

@@johnmartin650 Because a lot of folk, especially with the British mentality, tend to get bored of predictable winners and naturally start wanting the underdog to win as it would be more exciting to see. Always a problem being a regular winner, people start to hate you purely because they want to see something more exciting (ie, unpredictable and different). There is also just that element of the basic fact that in order to really dominate so consistently all the time for so long, you have to be very cold and more robotic. Entertaining personalities may be super talented and win quite a bit, but they can't ever be so consistent about it all the time by the very nature of their minds and attitudes.

Im from Greece,and during the 90ies me and many kids watched you and all the others and developed love for the game,but really one name is connected with my childhood memories watching snooker,and its your name Stephen...!! No matter what you always gonna be the champion.. Im grateful for the memories,and for teaching young lads like i was what sportsmanship and dedication really means.. God bless you...!!

Remember O' Sullivan knocking Mark Williams out of the WC in 2008, it knocked Mark out of the top 32, i think it was to number 48. Even then Stephen was still getting to the Crucible Semi-Finals. Yet Mark knuckled down and fought and put the hours in. Now he's still top 8. Stephen Hendry should still be top 3 in the world but everyone's motivations are different. He achieved everything and I don't blame him for not being up for a mad long fight. Our brains are different. williams, higgins and o'sullivan love competing. Hendry loved winning. Great channel! Used to hate you steve because of your TOTAL Domination, but I love ya now

Absolute legend, could watch and listen to Stephen all day. So wish he was still playing

I discovered snooker at 19 when Stephen was 19. I wasn’t latched on to Davis or White so I loved watching Stephen dominate as the “next big thing”. Great times.

Hendry was an absolute weapon. He used to just mow players down and annihilate them before they got to the table. He was no frills and didnt carry on like a goose. The lack of tournaments in his day and yet still has 36 Ranking Titles to his name speaks volumes to his dominance. He was in my mind the beginning of the new era of players who attack and dont hold back, definitely inspired me as a young man to pick up a cue. Thanks Stephen.

I think you was the greatest snooker player of all time, used to love watching you play and love your KZread channel now.

Liking this very honest and casual reflection on your life Stephen. While you were never my favourite player (as you kept beating Jimmy!!) I have the upmost respect for what you have done and are doing now for the game. I love the game, but im not great as it is so rediculous hard. But it is still a love of mine.

You’ve still got it Stephen , go for more world titles 🐐

i loved snooker from the 80's onwards ... times have changed and i still enjoy it now but those early days of me watching snooker were special ... so thank you all that made many memorable moments!

Im a millenial born in 86 and watching you inspired me to play snooker your still the champ in my eyes and always will be, great channel keep more videos coming

I hope we get more of this style, one of my favourite videos from this channel, it just feels like we have having a relaxed frame with a great, down at the club.

You still got it Stephen. I could have listened to you talking about your career for hours. I remember being a massive Jimmy fan but I always respected how you played. Your will and desire to win were supreme and as much as I loved Jimmy I was a fan of yours too as the years went by. I hope you do get back to the Crucible for one last time as a player. I also want to thank you for meeting with me after your comms at the UK Championship last year (Zhang vs Vafaei. You even agreed to a photograph which was something I was very grateful for. Thanks again for the content and keep it going!

you earned a lot of new fans because of this channel, and rightly so. even people who weren't your fans in the 90's, like me (i was a jimmy white fan). great work

Very interesting to hear all this Stephen, thanks. Davis was my hero as a kid; I still remember being awed by your rise and the complete, obsessive domination you had in the 90s.

There is a portrait of you with the 87 Grand Prix trophy on the wall beside the table I play on in my local club (Pyramid Club in Kilmarnock) Every Friday night when I play with my 85 year old Dad (who’s claim to fame is beating John Pullman in a best of 5 exhibition back in 74) I always give it a wee glance of admiration. My old man aside, you were the biggest inspiration for me playing snooker & absolutely my GOAT. A fantastic ambassador of the game & genuinely think if you qualified for the Crucible again it would be possibly your greatest achievement. Get Practicing! 👏🏻👏🏻

In my eyes you are the GOAT of this hardest sport in the world it looks easy but has to be the hardest thing ever.

Love the videos at the moment, watching religiously🫡❤️

Loved this. Very honest and enthralling to listen to.

Everyone in Scotland loved it when Stephen was winning everything. Before Hendry, Scotland had been absolutely shit at snooker so to then utterly dominate the sport was amazing. The fact that his constant winning meant some folks (especially outside Scotland) didn't like him made the winning all the sweeter. Absolute legend.

Awesome, Stephen.. really enjoyed that. Great channel too, love the all the videos. keep em coming!

You were like Jordan was in the NBA, DOMINANT. I started 8 and 9 ball when APA started, and dream of getting some snooker games in someday! Caught up this decade with all the classic matches, and I must say you're a fantastic commentator with oodles of insight. ❤️✌️

Absolutely love your videos. I’ve always watched snooker since the early 90s. I watched them with my great Nan all those years ago and we loved watching yourself and Jimmy White.

Stephen and I are almost exactly the same age. I was a huge fan of the man the world knew as The Nugget, and remember my teenage depression following his defeats to Taylor and Johnson. Then three years of joy, then along came this young whipersnapper called Hendry who started winning everything. I couldn't dislike him because you'd have to be a fool not to recognise his enormous talent, but Davis was my hero and I didn't like seeing him getting beat. In the coming years I warmed to Hendry and regarded him as the best player ever to hold a cue. And it is fantastic to see what an engaging chap he is now that he can relax more and just enjoy being a legend of the game.

Been enjoying your videos. Great channel. You’re still killing it and winning, just in a different format.

Awesome. Thanks fella. I really love to hear people talk about what made them. I am quite happy to listen to Hendry on Hendry on a regular basis. Just Hendry and the Table smacking balls in tellin us stories. There is something really satisfying about watching those balls go in one after another, the sounds, the feeling. The awe of the skill maybe. That can't get a win on the tour apparently but. I'd still love to see him get back out there competing seriously. Hendry is also that interesting story of the fine line that it is at the top. People talk about Tyson still being terrfying etc but remember when he lost his edge he was getting floored by absolute nobodies. He was still an animal but all of those guys are. It's more a testament to how great you have to be to dominate like that. People treat the also rans like jokes but they are streets ahead of the average person. Even to get a sniff of professional play you have to be a bit special. It isn't all good necessarily and the closer to the top the better/worse it gets. In the words of the Red Mamba, consider a universal jokes by casual idiots on their couch, 'I'm closer to Lebron than you are to me'. Anyway. I'm fascinated by the whole story. What makes peolpe great, why peole fail, why great people fail etc. To be able to listen to someone like Hendry like this talk, unhindered by some idiot Corporate Media agena is great (obviously there's a bit of production going on here at like our mate Joe Rogan he has had a lot time in the regular media before doing this). Like you are in the room with him as he practices just talking about his life. Then you get Ronnie, Robertson or some other sports legend who just loves snooker in there having a game a chat and a game and you get to sit in like one of their mates while it happens. Love it. Give me more... Harder, faster. No. I think we're at a stage where we can be a little more intimate.. romantic. Just keep it up. I'm open to Hendry on the Golf Course with Golf Pros also... could be a thing. It's still a cue tip all these things crossover and into life too which is perhaps the most important

It feels like a farewell, and it feels as if you feel the time is right for that. I know a lot of people have been waiting for it and said you shouldn't have returned at all, but it's been a pleasure to see you in action again over the last three years. If we do see you again, whichever tournament it might be will be richer for having your name on the drawsheet. If not, thank you for all you've given to this sport as a player.

Epic episode from the undisputed GOAT! youngest ever WC and completely dominated for a decade in a stronger era with less tournaments. If Stephen was in his prime today he would be miles ahead of the firework. Ronald couldn't cope with Stephen's mental prowess... just facts!

people say poncey Hendry declined from the early 2000s, but I think that is false. It's just that at the beginning of the 2000s, a new generation of extremely talented players emerged, not to mention the fact that Ronnie continued to progress enormously from the years 2002-2003 and after. It wasn't Hendry who declined, it was just the adversity that was too much for him. And let's face it, in the years of Hendry's reign, there was no great adversity facing him. If there were today's players back in Hendry's heyday, he would have won far fewer titles.

Stephen i couldnt agree with u more, my mother was barmaid in local snooker club when i was age 6-16 ish , it became my home and i loved growing up there, once i got fairly good and in my teens and playing snooker and pool all the time, just having the local members watching me play while they were on the fruit machine like i did them as a kid, made me focus and practise on my own so much more seriously, a table at home wouldnt have been the same club atmosphere or effort/concentration from myself

I recently spoke with a 85 yr old retired Major League Baseball Pitcher (I live in USA) and he said the key to becoming the best at anything comes down to one word...Obsession.

Your career is something to be very proud of and thanks so much for sharing the sport on this channel!
