It hasn't been beaten because players don't play the game everyday. They also don't play on 8 footers with 5inch pockets everyday. I think there are several players that would beat it today easily if they had those conditions and they played it everyday like he did. Players today are so much better than back then I don't care what anyone says. I would say a run of 400 balls on a tight diamond is like running 800 balls on an eight footer with 5 inch pockets. I'm a fan of the old players and watched them growing up but they just aren't as good as this generation of players. The don't break as good, know the rack as well, kick as well, run out, play patterns, etc. everything and there is more great players now than ever. I would bet 50 years from now there will be even more great players than there is now.
lol, there isn't a player alive that wouldn't give his left nut to be the guy who broke the 526.
There are plenty of old Brunswicks still around...
