Shaun Murphy claimed that the reputations of snooker’s ‘Class of 92’ hindered both him and his fellow professionals during their careers.
Ronnie O’Sullivan, John Higgins and Mark Williams all entered the World Snooker Tour at the same time 23 years ago and have stayed at the very top of the game ever since.
O’Sullivan is the oldest player to win each of the World Snooker Championship, UK Championship and Masters, claiming all three in the past three years. While Williams is playing a Crucible final at the age of 50, beating four-time champion Higgins in the semi-final to get there.
Remarkably, all three players are still at the top of the sport after 69 years of experience, 100 ranking titles and 14 world titles combined.
