U.K.: WELSHMAN RAY REARDON WINS WORLD PROFESSIONAL SNOOKER CHAMPIONSHIP FOR FOURTH TIME.
- Title: U.K.: WELSHMAN RAY REARDON WINS WORLD PROFESSIONAL SNOOKER CHAMPIONSHIP FOR FOURTH TIME.
- Date: 24th April 1976
- Summary: 1. MV Ray Reardon potting ball; potting pink; potting red; potting blue; potting red; potting green; potting red; potting black and missing red (2 shots) 1.47 2. SV Reardon accepting trophy (3 shots) 1.58 COMMENTARY: "Now he's played and the ball's gone into the pocket. Nos it could be the pink into the centre. And he has a red into the same pocket. Just a little spin leaving himself on the pink into the top. No he stays on the green. Now two reds, first red into the centre pocket. The audience spellbound at the moment as Reardon creeps quietly towards the coveted title -- world snooker champion. Onto the green, a little screw and he's followed through for one of the two reds. And he in fact has snookered himself. He's got to get position on one of those two reds above the pink. And that's not easy although he's left himself in the centre. I don't know how that didn't drop. Congratulations and applause all round. And a man from Wales, a miner for the fourth time has taken the world crown."
