EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Andrew Cowie from Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the intense atmosphere of the 1988 World Snooker Championships at The Crucible Theatre in Sheffield. The image features the legendary snooker player, Alex Higgins, during his first-round match against Tony Drago. With a steely determination etched across his face, Higgins is seen meticulously lining up a shot on the green baize table. His focused gaze and poised stance reveal the immense skill and concentration that made him one of snooker's most iconic figures. However, despite his undeniable talent and charismatic presence, this particular championship did not favor Higgins as he faced a disappointing defeat with a scoreline of 10-2 against Drago. Nevertheless, even in defeat, Higgins' passion for the sport shines through every pixel of this photograph. The black-and-white composition adds an air of nostalgia to the image while emphasizing the dramatic lighting and shadows cast upon both players. It serves as a poignant reminder of an era when snooker was at its peak popularity and showcases Cowie's ability to capture raw emotion within sports photography. This stunning print immortalizes not only a specific moment in time but also pays homage to Alex Higgins' enduring legacy within the world of snooker.
