Nothing like a good poll

In spells against part he was doing 110 double in
160 starts a plenty

Tony David would have had him.

In 2002, Part was the only player to win a set off him all week (and won three, in the final). And within two months and a bit, Part was world champion.

Barney was the best player in the world between 2003 and 2007.

Didn't think live commentary without soundproof chambers was that recent ago.

Didn't think live commentary without soundproof chambers was that recent ago.

I remember John Gwynne saying that they were at the side of the room in a wooden shed or something, just some old shack.

Here's a fun (arguably) shot of the room they used back then. The Casino Rooms in Rochester, Kent (Super Series klaxon).
