      <description>The Maharaja Pratap Sinh Coronation Gymkhana (aka The Polo Club) Snooker Tournament is underway in Vadodara, Gujerat in India.

Quite a lot of the players who might have been expected to go through got knocked out in the group stage - Devendra Joshi got the better of Manan Chandra, Dhruv Sitwala beat out Manish Jain, Ashok Shandilya got through instead of Brijesh Damani and in the final group...</description></item>

VOTE FOR UP TO TWO PEOPLE

Joe Davis


Godfather of snooker who created the World Snooker Championship and subsequently won it 15 times. His name and legacy remains iconic to this day and he helped propel the game of snookers popularity.

We all know about the 7 World titles, but what else will he be remembered for in the years and decades to come, now that the dust has settled on his retirement.

      <description>Guys... I wont lie to you! You will not be able to solve my fiendishly difficult snooker riddle...

What is the lowest possible winning score in snooker?

A player wins a frame of snooker with a very, very low score. The lowest possible. His opponent does not concede prematurely. His opponent cannot return to the table when the eventual winner plays his final shot...

So what is the final score...</description></item>

      <description>This is something that seems inevitable if, as expected, the rankings change over to a money based system. Most people seem to be to quite happy with this and are welcoming it with open arms. However, I'm yet to be convinced.

How exactly do World Snooker plan on having all 128 players at EVERY VENUE? It just doesn't seem very feasible both logistically and timewise unless they hold the opening...</description></item>

SNOOKER: Ben's Q School bid is rocket-fueled

4:30pm Saturday 12th May 2012 in Sport
HAWKERIDGE’S Ben Harrison is hoping that a spell practicing alongside new world champion Ronnie O’Sullivan will help inspire him to clinch a place on the World Snooker Tour at this month’s Q School.

The first of the three Q School tournaments, where 12...</description></item>

      <description>Just thinking that Golf with its Major winners and Tennis with its Slam winners compare champions and eras on this method, whereas Snooker places full importance on the World Championship despite having 3 recognised Majors.

Jack Nicklaus leads the way for Golf with 18 Majors to his name, whilst Roger Federer leads the tennis stakes with 16 Slams to his name.

These sports have 4 counting events...</description></item>
