R.I.P. Mika Immonen – Cue Sports Legend
His Résumé is too long to list, but suffice to say say Mika Immonen was a legend of Cue Sports.
“I remember meeting him at Amsterdam Billiards in New York once and you can just sense that there was something different about him” said Snooker Canada President, Patrick Guigui. “It seems that all elite athletes of any sport have a different energy about them, it is something that you can’t really put your finger on.
Ronnie O’Sullivan chimed in to say this: “So sad to hear of the passing of my friend Mika, someone I did not see enough of but thought a great deal of. Stayed at my house on times in UK and enjoyed our runs in the forest, one of the greatest pool players of the generation, an honour to share a pool table with him but also the personal times together I will never forget. Sadly missed, devastated today. ”
RIP Iceman and thank you for everything you gave us.
