you realize you are bragging about making contact? This is the whole point.

In pool you can quickly teach people to make real shots, not just occasionally make decent contact with the ball.

Chi Chi Rodrigues, just after winning a PGA event by holing a pressure putt on the 72nd hole, was asked by a commentator "how did you deal with the pressure on the 72nd hole?" His legendary answer was "That's not pressure, Real pressure is a twenty-dollar putt when you only have ten in your pocket."

I don't think you can compare the number of centuries when the equipment has changed so much. Modern cloths far faster which makes it much easier to develop balls. And last few seasons some of the top players have been complaining they've been making the pockets too easy, which narrows their advantage over the weaker players.

Hendry has acknowledged that the fields are tougher now. Basically said that in his prime era you could count on easy opponents your first several rounds. Now you’ve got so many good players that early round “shockers” aren’t really that shocking. Ronnie’s titles came in the era where he’s competing with 3 of the other 5 consensus top 5 all time players in their prime (Higgins, Selby and Williams).

It’s always hard to compare a shorter period of dominance to a longer period of excellence. Ronnie credits Hendry as the GOAT because he won 7 WC in a decade. Hendry calls Ronnie the GOAT because he’s won so many titles over the decades.
