My Take
John Parrott deserves more admiration than he often gets. The Liverpudlian won the 1991 World Snooker Championship and, more impressively to me, stayed inside the world's top sixteen for fourteen straight seasons. Snooker looks serene but is brutally psychological, and sustaining that level for over a decade speaks to discipline rather than mere talent. His MBE reflects a genuine contribution to the sport. I have a real soft spot for quietly excellent, craftsman-like athletes who let consistency do the talking, and Parrott is a textbook example. The grind of staying at the top, year after year, earns my deep respect.
