Ken Doherty (born 17 September 1969) is an Irish professional snooker player and radio presenter. He is the one of only two players to have been world amateur (1989) and world professional champion (1997). He was also World Under-21 champion in 1989. As a prolific break-builder, Doherty has compiled more than 300 century breaks in professional competition.
Career
After two semi-finals in the 1991/92 season (his second as a professional), Doherty reached the final of the 1992 Grand Prix, narrowly losing 10–9 to Jimmy White. In the same event a year later, he lost 6–9 to Peter Ebdon. His first ranking title was the 1993 Welsh Open, enough to take him into the top 16 in the world, where he remained until the 2007/08 season. In the 1994 World Championship he reached the quarter-finals, his only run past the first round before 1997.
Doherty became only the third player from outside the United Kingdom (after Australian Horace Lindrum in 1952 and Canadian Cliff Thorburn in 1980) to win the World Championship when he beat Stephen Hendry 18–12 in the 1997 final. Ken also reached the World Championship final in 1998 (losing to John Higgins) and in 2003, losing narrowly to Mark Williams. The latter run was noted for some outstanding comebacks, including final-frame wins over Graeme Dott and Shaun Murphy, a 13–8 win over John Higgins in a match where Doherty raced ahead 10–0 but Higgins fought back to 10–7, and a semi-final fightback from 9–15 to beat Paul Hunter 17–16. In that championship he played more frames than anyone before or since. In the final, Williams led 11–4 but Doherty fought back to 12–12 and 16–16. In frame 33, Doherty missed the 2nd to final red with a clearance there for the taking. Williams won that crucial frame and the next to prevail 18–16.
John Kenneth Doherty (May 16, 1905 – April 19, 1996) was an American decathlon champion, college track and field coach, author and longtime director of the Penn Relays. While a student at the University of Michigan, Doherty won the American decathlon championship in 1928 and 1929 and won the bronze medal in the event at the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam. He later served as a track coach at Princeton University (1929–1930), the University of Michigan (1930–1948), and the University of Pennsylvania (1948–1957). He was also the meet director for the Penn Relays from 1956 to 1969 and of the first dual track meet between the United States and the Soviet Union in 1959. He was also a published author of works on track coaching, and his Track & Field Omnibook was regarded as "the track coach's bible" from the 1970s through the 1990s. Doherty has been inducted into at least six athletic halls of fame, including the National Track and Field Hall of Fame and athletic halls of fame at the University of Pennsylvania, University of Michigan, and Wayne State University.
Stephen Gordon Hendry, MBE (born 13 January 1969) is a Scottish former professional snooker player.
Hendry became the youngest professional snooker player in 1985 aged 16 and, in 1990, he was the youngest-ever snooker World Champion, at the age of 21. He won the World Championship seven times, a record in the modern era, and was snooker's world number one for eight consecutive seasons between 1990 and 1998, and again in 2006/2007. Hendry has the distinction of winning the most world ranking titles (36) and is second on the century break list behind Ronnie O'Sullivan with 775 competitive century breaks. He has made 11 competitive maximum breaks, second only to Ronnie O'Sullivan. In May 2012 he retired from the sport to concentrate on his commercial interests, and also works as a commentator for the BBC.
Career
Amateur years (1981–1985)
Hendry started playing snooker in 1981, aged 12, when his father, Gordon, bought him a child-sized snooker table as a Christmas present. Two years later he won the Scottish U-16 Championship. He also appeared on BBC's Junior version of Pot Black. The following year he won the Scottish Amateur Championship and also became the youngest ever entrant in the World Amateur Championship. In 1985, after retaining the Scottish Amateur Championship, he turned professional. At 16 years and three months old he was the youngest ever professional. Hendry was managed by entrepreneur Ian Doyle.
Stephen James Hendry (born 4 December 1990), known professionally as Stephen James, is a British model. He is a former professional footballer and won international youth caps for Scotland.

Al was a fantastic athlete from the 1970s. I don’t say that lightly. Being able to compete at a national level in both shotput and Olympic style weight lifting; Al was truly one of a kind. This despite lying to Sports Illustrated when he claimed the bench was the most important exercise he did. That was to keep Randy Matson or anyone else for that matter from discovering the benefits of the full snatch and clean and jerk.
This is perhaps his most seen throw despite not being in his top 10 all time. Here is shown two different angles on throws from the same competition. The one on the left of screen being the 70ft 3in.
Al is one of the best technicians of what has been referred to as the long short glide. That being a long drive across and shorter power base. Referred to as “squatty body” by Brian Oldfield Al has a body type that lends himself to more bent over and deeper positions not only in the shot but also his weightlifting. From what I can tell he is also slightly bow legged with and inclination toward toes in.
Out of the back he starts very low with his chest horizontal, virtually resting on his thigh. He has as much knee over toe as he can without dropping his hips prematurely and raising his torso. He taps his left foot and brings it up high and then gathers himself as tight as he can rising on his right toe. His shoulders are cocked slightly to the right to create more separation between upper and lower body.
As he rocks backwards into the circle the left foot just grazes the ground as he begins to kick the left back into full extension. His hips drops even lower as he shifts back. His left leg finishes extension before his right. His right leg then pushes as horizontally as he can off the heel.
As noted by Ken Doherty in the Track and Field Omni book, Al has the remarkable ability to keep his shoulders lower than anyone else during the drive across the circle. Immediately after the heel leaves the ground he begins to turn the right foot hard and pull the right foot under him. The right foot lands pointing directly at 90° and bent at the knee.
His ability to keep the shoulders facing the rear of the circle at this point is also remarkable. His left foot is a little bit late landing which will cause him to pull off his back foot prematurely. His left foot lands more pointing down the right sector line. This opens his hips more and allows more turning with the hips as he finishes. It is at this point when the left lands that his left arm begins to move.
He throws the left arm hard as he can whilst simultaneously turning the right foot. Note that the legs remain “soft” as he turns similar to the actions employed by many East German throwers in the discus. The idea in his head is to turn and then push. Though because of the late left this doesn’t happen perfectly.
He keeps the shot back as long as he can, not just behind the hips by twisting but also by keeping it over the right foot. This happens at the same time as the previously mentioned actions which creates the bow and arrow effect commonly referred to as the “Backwards C”. When the hips have reached their maximum forward extension ahead of the shoulders the body then snaps forward. This is extremely similar to the action that happens during the Olympic style press.
He holds the left leg forward as this snapping takes places. This stop creates the force transfer that puts the most amount of force into the shot. Whether in the spin or glide this must happen if you are to get the most out of your throw.

This is perhaps his most seen throw despite not being in his top 10 all time. Here is shown two different angles on throws from the same competition. The one on the left of screen being the 70ft 3in.
Al is one of the best technicians of what has been referred to as the long short glide. That being a long drive across and shorter power base. Referred to as “squatty body” by Brian Oldfield Al has a body type that lends himself to more bent over and deeper positions not only in the shot but also his weightlifting. From what I can tell he is also slightly bow legged with and inclination toward toes in.
Out of the back he starts very low with his chest horizontal, virtually resting on his thigh. He has as much knee over toe as he can without dropping his hips prematurely and raising his torso. He taps his left foot and brings it up high and then gathers himself as tight as he can rising on his right toe. His shoulders are cocked slightly to the right to create more separation between upper and lower body.
As he rocks backwards into the circle the left foot just grazes the ground as he begins to kick the left back into full extension. His hips drops even lower as he shifts back. His left leg finishes extension before his right. His right leg then pushes as horizontally as he can off the heel.
As noted by Ken Doherty in the Track and Field Omni book, Al has the remarkable ability to keep his shoulders lower than anyone else during the drive across the circle. Immediately after the heel leaves the ground he begins to turn the right foot hard and pull the right foot under him. The right foot lands pointing directly at 90° and bent at the knee.
His ability to keep the shoulders facing the rear of the circle at this point is also remarkable. His left foot is a little bit late landing which will cause him to pull off his back foot prematurely. His left foot lands more pointing down the right sector line. This opens his hips more and allows more turning with the hips as he finishes. It is at this point when the left lands that his left arm begins to move.
He throws the left arm hard as he can whilst simultaneously turning the right foot. Note that the legs remain “soft” as he turns similar to the actions employed by many East German throwers in the discus. The idea in his head is to turn and then push. Though because of the late left this doesn’t happen perfectly.
He keeps the shot back as long as he can, not just behind the hips by twisting but also by keeping it over the right foot. This happens at the same time as the previously mentioned actions which creates the bow and arrow effect commonly referred to as the “Backwards C”. When the hips have reached their maximum forward extension ahead of the shoulders the body then snaps forward. This is extremely similar to the action that happens during the Olympic style press.
He holds the left leg forward as this snapping takes places. This stop creates the force transfer that puts the most amount of force into the shot. Whether in the spin or glide this must happen if you are to get the most out of your throw.

#stephenhendry #snooker #masters
Ken Doherty (born 17 September 1969) is an Irish professional snooker player and radio presenter. He is the one of only two players to have been world amateur (1989) and world professional champion (1997). He was also World Under-21 champion in 1989. As a prolific break-builder, Doherty has compiled more than 300 century breaks in professional competition.
Career
After two semi-finals in the 1991/92 season (his second as a professional), Doherty reached the final of the 1992 Grand Prix, narrowly losing 10–9 to Jimmy White. In the same event a year later, he lost 6–9 to Peter Ebdon. His first ranking title was the 1993 Welsh Open, enough to take him into the top 16 in the world, where he remained until the 2007/08 season. In the 1994 World Championship he reached the quarter-finals, his only run past the first round before 1997.
Doherty became only the third player from outside the United Kingdom (after Australian Horace Lindrum in 1952 and Canadian Cliff Thorburn in 1980) to win the World Championship when he beat Stephen Hendry 18–12 in the 1997 final. Ken also reached the World Championship final in 1998 (losing to John Higgins) and in 2003, losing narrowly to Mark Williams. The latter run was noted for some outstanding comebacks, including final-frame wins over Graeme Dott and Shaun Murphy, a 13–8 win over John Higgins in a match where Doherty raced ahead 10–0 but Higgins fought back to 10–7, and a semi-final fightback from 9–15 to beat Paul Hunter 17–16. In that championship he played more frames than anyone before or since. In the final, Williams led 11–4 but Doherty fought back to 12–12 and 16–16. In frame 33, Doherty missed the 2nd to final red with a clearance there for the taking. Williams won that crucial frame and the next to prevail 18–16.
Diana Lovejoy collapsed in a California courtroom Monday after she was convicted in what authorities call a botched murder-for-hire plot targeting her now-ex-husband, who was shot in September 2016 but survived.

WHEN A GYPSY TRAVELLER ENCOUNTERS AN EX GANGSTER FROM THE STREETS, TWO WORLDS COLLIDE AND LET'S JUST SAY IT DOESN'T END WELL.
See part 2 of this video here: https://youtu.be/0yHfti5PK7E
Al was a fantastic athlete from the 1970s. I don’t say that lightly. Being able to compete at a national level in both shotput and Olympic style weight lifting; Al was truly one of a kind. This despite lying to Sports Illustrated when he claimed the bench was the most important exercise he did. That was to keep Randy Matson or anyone else for that matter from discovering the benefits of the full snatch and clean and jerk.
This is perhaps his most seen throw despite not being in his top 10 all time. Here is shown two different angles on throws from the same competition. The one on the left of screen being the 70ft 3in.
Al is one of the best technicians of what has been referred to as the long short glide. That being a long drive across and shorter power base. Referred to as “squatty body” by Brian Oldfield Al has a body type that lends himself to more bent over and deeper positions not only in the shot but also his weightlifting. From what I can tell he is also slightly bow legged with and inclination toward toes in.
Out of the back he starts very low with his chest horizontal, virtually resting on his thigh. He has as much knee over toe as he can without dropping his hips prematurely and raising his torso. He taps his left foot and brings it up high and then gathers himself as tight as he can rising on his right toe. His shoulders are cocked slightly to the right to create more separation between upper and lower body.
As he rocks backwards into the circle the left foot just grazes the ground as he begins to kick the left back into full extension. His hips drops even lower as he shifts back. His left leg finishes extension before his right. His right leg then pushes as horizontally as he can off the heel.
As noted by Ken Doherty in the Track and Field Omni book, Al has the remarkable ability to keep his shoulders lower than anyone else during the drive across the circle. Immediately after the heel leaves the ground he begins to turn the right foot hard and pull the right foot under him. The right foot lands pointing directly at 90° and bent at the knee.
His ability to keep the shoulders facing the rear of the circle at this point is also remarkable. His left foot is a little bit late landing which will cause him to pull off his back foot prematurely. His left foot lands more pointing down the right sector line. This opens his hips more and allows more turning with the hips as he finishes. It is at this point when the left lands that his left arm begins to move.
He throws the left arm hard as he can whilst simultaneously turning the right foot. Note that the legs remain “soft” as he turns similar to the actions employed by many East German throwers in the discus. The idea in his head is to turn and then push. Though because of the late left this doesn’t happen perfectly.
He keeps the shot back as long as he can, not just behind the hips by twisting but also by keeping it over the right foot. This happens at the same time as the previously mentioned actions which creates the bow and arrow effect commonly referred to as the “Backwards C”. When the hips have reached their maximum forward extension ahead of the shoulders the body then snaps forward. This is extremely similar to the action that happens during the Olympic style press.
He holds the left leg forward as this snapping takes places. This stop creates the force transfer that puts the most amount of force into the shot. Whether in the spin or glide this must happen if you are to get the most out of your throw.

🚨 STEPHEN HENDRY 🚨
What a genuine conversation this was with the snooker legend Stephen Hendry!
Stephen dominated the game of snooker in his prime winning seven World titles, six Masters titles and five UK Championships.
Dubbed the 'King of the Crucible', Stephen changed the game of snooker and won like no one else before him or since. Many would argue that Stephen is the greatest snooker player of all time.
As with other sporting heroes who dominated their sport, there are priorities that you have to make and characteristics you need to operate at the very top of elite sport.
