I knew I was close, Shane is almost impossible to beat in a race to 100. But don't do so well in the shorter races. Shane is like a marathon runner, he don't have the speed for the 100 yard dash. And the sprinter don't have the endurance to run a marathon.
I think you are selling him short. Shane is one of the best short race players I've ever seen. Three of his Derby City 9-ball titles came when all the races, including the final, were to seven, and winning the Derby City 9-ball usually requires winning at least thirteen of your fourteen matches. Short races suited him just fine at one of the hardest events to win in our sport.
Away from the Mosconi, Shane has been a fantastic short race player.
