Clive Everton (born 7 September 1937) is a Welsh veteran former BBCsnookercommentator, journalist, author and former professional snooker player. He is generally regarded as the authoritive voice for snooker, on account of his knowledge of the game for over forty years.
He began his BBC career on the radio but is best known for his television work, commentating on the World Snooker Championship from 1978 until 2010. He continues to commentate for other broadcasters, notably ITV4 for the Champion of Champions and World Grand Prix tournaments, Sky Sports, at the World Seniors Championship and Snooker Shoot-Out and Perform Media, where he provides commentary on the Championship League, syndicated to a number of betting websites and World Snooker's subscription service. He has also commentated for other worldwide broadcasters including Eurosport, CBC and Fox Sports Australia.
Biography
Everton was a talented amateur player of English billiards, reaching both the 1975 and 1977 world semi-finals. In the latter he exacerbated a back injury, forcing a temporary retirement from the highest level of the game; he became a professional snooker and billiards player in 1981. Everton's biggest win as a professional snooker player was a 5-2 defeat of Patsy Fagan in the last 64 of the Professional Players Tournament 1982, before losing to Cliff Thorburn with the same score in the last 32. He reached (and lost) four Welsh Professional Snooker Championship quarter-finals and three major billiard quarter-finals.
Steve Davis, OBE (born 22 August 1957) is an English former professional snooker player from Plumstead, London. Known for dominating the sport during the 1980s, when he won the World Championship six times and was ranked world number one for seven consecutive seasons, he is remembered particularly for contesting the 1985 World Championship final with Dennis Taylor, the black-ball conclusion of which attracted a record 18.5 million British viewers. He is a well known public figure and is generally viewed by his peers as one of the greatest players of all time. Today, Davis combines his ongoing playing career with his role as a television analyst and commentator for the BBC's snooker coverage.
In addition to his six world titles, Davis's career achievements include three Masters and a record six UK Championship titles. He has won a total of 28 ranking events, tied with John Higgins, and behind only Stephen Hendry, and has won over £5.5 million in prize money. Davis has compiled more than 350 competitive century breaks, including the first officially recognised (and first televised) maximum break in professional competition, in 1982. During the 1987/1988 season, he became the first player to complete snooker's Triple Crown by winning the UK Championship, Masters, and World Championship in the same season. His other accomplishments include winning the World Doubles Championship four times with Tony Meo and winning the World Team Classic/World Cup four times with England.
Davis has served as a business leader and advisor for a range of private and nonprofit companies and international organizations. For 14 years he helped run the Bill Gates-founded digital media firm Corbis, including serving as its CEO for ten years. He also was a senior advisor and director of social innovation at McKinsey & Company, a global management consulting firm.
