Nothing other than pure curiosity seems me post this, but does anyone know what happened to the following players, who seem to have gone from the world of 9-Ball and were great players in their day? Steve Knight Ching-Sung Yang Thanks. [ This message was edited by: mal_clarke on 2015-02-19 14:55 ]

Funny you should ask now... Ching Shun Yang has just got through to the Last 8 (Quarter Finals) of the World Ten Ball Championships... Not a bad start for his return to pool - the details will be in the Day 4 supplement to the World Ten Ball article to be updated momentarily.
I saw Steve Knight last year... I do wonder how good he would be now if he had continued to play 9 ball - what do you reckon?

Who would win between Appleton and Knight if Stevie had continued playing do you think?

Wow thats a very tough one!! Heart says Steve but head says Daz. Steve was a massive talent and Daz has worked really hard and has achieved results that are amazing. I'll go for the cop out and say if both were at their 100% maximum potential....... Steve for the cash Daz for the tournament ----------------- [ This message was edited by: PC on 2015-02-20 21:34 ]

Mark still playing snooker in Kent, don't think he bothers with 9 ball anymore, knew him years ago when I lived in Kent. He was so fast he scared most players before they started ha ha

and it wasn't judo, it was KICK BOXING. Last time i saw him he had inherited the family business - producing Pork Scratchings. Gone were the Dreadlocks and the piercings and he was wearing a business suit. [ This message was edited by: Doug on 2015-03-04 08:30 ]
