Snooker Canada Reporter Checks in from China

We threw out a litany of past Canadian snooker pros who played in England. Besides Cliff, Kirk, Big Bill, Jim Wych and Bob Chaperon, some others came out such as Gino Rigitano, Jim & John Bear ( I played Jim Bear in my first professional match Martin added), Marcel Gauvreau, Frank Jonik John White, Jeff White, Mario Morra, and others….

Ding Junhui was gracious in defeat and answered all my questions very well in English, commenting that he is a happier person these days and this has led to more success in this tournament.
