It was so lovely to see Mark Williams on top of the snooker world once more last night. Even more nice was that the match was played against his old friend and rival John Higgins and to a standard that was unbelievable and probably the best I've seen - completely fitting for a final featuring two of the greatest there has ever been and ever will be. I remember when Mark last played in the final against Doherty in 2003 and I can't not get all nostalgic and remember where I was, the longer evenings and the run down to the last weeks of school so it was quite emotional to see him, at least, return to a moment he last had all those years back.
Nice to see him keeping his word that he wasn't going to stop drinking until the sun came up this morning (oh and doing his final press conference starkers...not so nice!
). Just goes to show that if you succeed big at something then always take the time to enjoy it, cos you never know when the next one will come around!
