Pick your perfect Snooker player and I choose ;
1.John Higgins match play tactics.
2.Mark Williams aggressive safety play tactics.
3.Judd Trump's outrageous potting skills.
4.Stephen Hendry's century break skills.

I like your picks, I would add Peter Ebdon for his tenacity.

Well, Church, if you add the sanity of Steve Davis...you just might have
something close to the perfect player.

If I would travel a long way to see one match today, it would be Judd
Trump versus Mark Williams.
Their approach delights me...the others have a lot of baggage.
 
Special Mention

Alan 'Angles ' Mc'Manus.
He wasn't Snookered for too long . He always seemed to find the escape.

Back in the 80's, many of the top pros, if they needed a snooker with
the pink and black on the table...they would have picked Dennis Taylor
to shoot for them.

I'm not sure about Williams as a safety player? One of my favourite players ever, mind.

How about Cliff Wilson - ever see him play? Judd Trump's granddad!

Now there is a name I haven't thought of for a while.
He quit the game for 20 years and made it into the top 16.
Even when he messed up, his laugh could be heard for miles.
