Alex "Hurricane" Higgins Snooker Legend
The world of snooker has produced many great snooker world champions , and it is here I remember it's greatest player; the wayward and controversial twice world snooker champion Alex "Hurricane" Higgins. Those who love snooker, loved Alex Higgins, and his fellow professionals from the world of snooker respected him for his talent and what he brought to the snooker world.
The brilliant and downright outrageously talented Alex Higgins stands side by side with fellow Irishman George Best as amazingly gifted entertainers,Higgins and Best were icons in their sports.They stand alone as true geniuses, whom spectators paid to watch their talents above any other player in their field.
Alex was certainly no angel.In life, or when performing on the green baize,where he made as many friends as enemies.I shall remember The People's Champion at his mesmerising best, with the cue in his hand entertaining all who came to watch him.
