    That would make sense. I didn't know about this incident.
    Though after looking it up he passed away already in September.

    Strange. Each to their own I guess
    No it's nost just you. It was a discussed topic in this thread as well. It was really strange to see. It may have to do with his "personal problems".

    nope, not just you, this has been mentioned by a few already.
    He just did not want to smile or even show any glimmer of enthusiasm of winning his second World Championship.
    Did I gather that there was some FaceTwit chat about this and reply/comment from MS?

    Please note: This fictional news story is not real. But you already knew that, right?

    Williams
    A. Higgins

    Then there could be a list of contenders like >>

    Robertson
    Selby
    Ding
    White
    Parrot
    Ebdon
    Doherty
    Thorburn

    If I'd make a list Selby would be the top guy of the second tier. Maybe I'd make a few tiers more and go:

    I:
    Hendry
    Davis
    O'Sullivan
    J. Higgins
    Reardon

    II:
    Williams
    A. Higgins
    Selby
    White

    III:
    Parrot
    Ebdon
    Doherty
    Robertson
    Ding
    Thorburn
    Griffiths

    don't know where to put Spencer
