Behind The White Ball

After Hurricane Higgins crashed out of snooker's top league, Jimmmy White has been the `People's Champion' even though he never quite made the top World spot, pipped at the post in 1995 by Stephen Hendry, after missing one single black. Aged 16, White was the youngest player to win the English Amateur Championship.

Dupa ce uraganul Higgins s-a prabusit din prima liga de snooker, Jimmmy White a fost ,,Campionul Poporului", chiar daca nu a ajuns niciodata pe primul loc in lume, depasit in 1995 de Stephen Hendry, dupa ce a ratat un singur negru. In varsta de 16 ani, White a fost cel mai tanar jucator care a castigat Campionatul Amatorilor Angliei.
