Stephen Hendry

Stephen Hendry is so inspirational because of his talent and his ability to pot balls from anywhere on the table. He is my favourite snooker player; I love to watch him play and with his skillful, exciting and magnificent mind, he is a clever 7-time world champion.

He is a fast and attacking break-builder with a tactical playing style and an extreme control over the cue ball. This fantastic magician can hit the ball hard or soft; and can play right-handed or left-handed.

This Crucible Phenomenon is unbeatable with his unpredictable, risk-taking and determined playing manner.

He is a tall, deep-voiced player with his head up - always looking for opportunities. He has quite long hair and is a role model for anyone who would like to follow in his footsteps.
