Ronnie O'Sullivan and Jimmy White Attempt LEGENDARY Alex Higgins Shot | Snooker | Eurosport

Ronnie O'Sullivan and Jimmy White attempt to recreate one of Alex Higgins' greatest shots!

Considering Alex was usually at least 3 times over the limit when he played, it makes his career even more remarkable.

Presenter: what’s going on?
Ronnie: I need a cue action

[thescrutineer]

I'm glad Jimmy did that for his old friend.

[DM-kvkj]

These were the best things on Eurosport snooker. We need more fun stuff like this with the top guys having a chat and recreating classic shots or having a knockabout on a good table. Hendry's youtube channel is mostly just that, hence why it's so instantly popular.

It's so weird seeing ronnie talking about the world's greatest players when he's one of them

[adambinnie]

I remember watching this Higgins break live when I was a teenager back in the 80's true brilliance from Alex, thanks for the load up!

[onelove]

Jimmy at his peak, back in the early 90's, he was a magician.

I am loving the Eurosport snooker coverage, thanks lads keep them coming

[hemanmotu]

Ebdon could do this shot no problem.



It would take him 5 years but no problem...

[paulelverstone]

I love this! You have two of the most exciting and influential players ever, talking about 'only 2 or 3 people who can hit that shot - Higgins, Hendry and Higgins'. Humble...

[jacktheblack]

I can confirm Jimmy has no alcohol in his blood at the moment .... just cocaine

[lewishorsman]

The only reason Jimmy could do that is because of how many times he woke up in sweats after seeing that and spent the next 10 hours trying it lol.

[sticksman]

Jimmy is a genius. Only he can pull that shots off. Ronnie is a genius in a different way.

[jasonsuter]

3 of best natural snooker talents ever, alex Higgins, jimmy white, and ronnie O'Sullivan

[strumbolli]

By far the best snooker coverage on Eurosport.

[cromwellsghost]

Jimmy drops it twice. The guy still has it.

[TheJohnCooper]

eurosport are so much more innovative in their ideas behind the scenes than bbc

[garethparr]

No player could play with side like Alex Higgins. A master in the art of side spin

[garyhillman]

Most skilful player ever Alex. Changed the game brought it into the masses. Moved on shots fast as a hurricane. Drank loads. Bet loads but the peoples champion and Jimmy whites hero Jimmy modelled himself on Alex —— magic

[JohnDurkin-mhwn]

Alex could be terrible on a bad day but when he was in the mood he was phenomenal, the text book went out the window it was all just talent adrenaline and alcohol but man he was something else. Rest in peace legend
