Making his 11th year in a row appearance at the World 14.1, the new millennium record holder of 14.1 championships, GERMANY's reigning World 14.1 Champion Mr. THORSTEN "Hitman" HOHMANN!! The 2006, 2011, 2013, & 2015 champion, no European, Asian or American player in the world has dominated the game like he has since the 1970s...?? (or...??)
Sept 5-11 in NYC, he'll go for his 5th win.

I am not sure at all, but if not Ray Martin maybe The Miz ?
... .
I'd have to give it to Mizerak with four straight US Opens. Before that I think you have to go back to Mosconi. The old-timers said that in a long match he could give 30% to anybody going to 1000.

I'm not able to answer your question in the OP...but I just wanted to add that during my entry stages here into 14.1, I have tried to watch EVERY match from Thorsten that I could find on YouTube! His stroke and the way he maneuvers his way through the racks is AMAZING!

Ok...now back to our regularly scheduled program...

If straight pool was still the championship game in pocket billiards IMO Thorsten would be considered the best player in the world.
