37 for me.

You could kick yourself when you see some of the well known names you've forgotten about.

I spent far too long trying to spell Silvino Francisco correctly, and Graham Dott instead of Greame Dott didn't help either.

Now that everyone's pretty much had a go, what's the worst one's you missed?

Mark Selby and Judd Trump were mine ........yet weirdly I got Tony Jones and Chris Small. Perhaps because they were two of the more obscure they stuck with me, it's odd....

Mark Selby
Selby killed me, I spent about half the whole quiz saying to myself 'the jester from Leicester', picturing his face and just couldn't get the name to come.

Judd Trump was my missed 'biggie' and spent a few minutes picturing the South African name in my head only to shake my head when the answer popped up at the end.

39 for me, worst miss was Stephen Lee though I also missed Stephen Maguire off the first line. Of those who only one won event, I'm chuffed with getting Mike Hallett.

Huge well done if anyone got Bob Chaperon. I was convinced that they'd spelt Alain Robidoux incorrectly!
