Irish Professional Championship

[edit]

From sources:

  • "I'd ruled the Irish roost since 1947 ... I held it for something like 24 years because there were no challengers until Belfast-born [Alex Higgins] came along [and we played in early 1972]." - Jackie Rea, quoted in Eye of the Hurricane: The Alex Higgins Story by John Hennessey
  • After such a lengthy interval, it is good to see the [Irish Professional Championship] being once again contested." ("Irish Championship in New Year", World Snooker magazine, December 1971.)

@BennyOnTheLoose: The sources you quote seem fairly consistent, and the IP user (178.167.170.51) making these edits is,I think, banned user DooksFoley147, who should be reverted in any case.  Alan  (talk) 06:46, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
