EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken on the 20th of April 2008 at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England, six-time World Snooker Champion Stephen Hendry MBE is seen intently focusing on the green baize table. The iconic Scottish player, who made his professional debut at the tender age of 16, is regarded as one of the greatest snooker players of all time. The World Championships, also known as the Betfred World Snooker Championship, is the most prestigious tournament in the sport, and Hendry has etched his name into its history books with a total of eight titles. In this image, Hendry is poised over the table, his cue extended, as he prepares to take a shot during the quarter-finals of the 2008 tournament. The Crucible Theatre, which has been the home of the World Snooker Championship since its inception in 1977, is known for its electric atmosphere, with the crowd hanging on every pot and break. Hendry, who retired from professional snooker in 2020, was a crowd favorite, and his performances at the Crucible were always met with rapturous applause and appreciation from the spectators. The photograph captures the intensity and focus of the game, with the spotlights illuminating the table and the tension in the air palpable. Hendry's expression reveals his unwavering determination to secure another victory, as he delicately positions the cue ball for his next shot. The photograph is a testament to the skill, concentration, and passion that define the sport of snooker and the extraordinary career of Stephen Hendry MBE.
