How many Pros over six foot?

Souquet isn't 6-feet, he is around 5'9" or less, I saw him at an IPT event.

I saw him when he won the 14.1 in Roseland in 2000-he's like 5'6-5'7
 
I might as well post a reply. I am 6'6". Just a little taller than James Roberts I believe, (but it depends on who is slouching). What's funny is I actually grew an inch a couple years ago, at the age of 32. I couldn't believe it. Pool does not bother my back at all, but I have developed a stance that is comfortable and puts my arm into a good position for a level swing. Some taller players I know struggle to find good positioning, resulting in poor fundamentals and an overall "goofy" stance. No one in this thread mind you, but more the amateurs who I know who haven't figured out what's best for them yet.
BTW, Debbie is 6'4", but I think she is still growing. We used to go ice skating a couple years ago and it was quite a sight for the 6 year olds to see two people, almost 7' tall flying at them on skates. It was a lot of fun.

Yeah I've stood next to Ralf and he's about 5'8" - 5'9". Don't recall anyone mentioning SVB but he looks about 6'1" to me. Shawn Putnam is a tall dude, I'd guess pushing 6'4".

Niels Feijen is right at 6 foot when I've seen him in person.

Jose Parica and Santos Sambajon combined would 6-foot tall.
Archer, Souquet and Alcano are 6-footers I believe.

Alcono is 5'11" per this
website....maybe he was wearing heels when you played him.....:)

I also wonder why I've heard no mention of Alex the Lion in this thread????.....:)
