Poor old Jimmy White, Knocked out of the world championship in the first round. Does anyone think Jimmy will ever be able to make it to another final or has Jimmy had his day? Its not as if he hasn't had his chances. He's been runner up 6 times I think.

Sadly Jimmy will always be stuck with the bridesmaid tag. The standard of the game is so high these days and is basically a young mans game. He will always be the fans favourite and will still produce the odd flash of brilliance but unfortunately I see him drifting out of the top 16 in a few years and staying out. It would be nice if he could prove me wrong. ;)

Jimmys had his best year by far & he could reach the final again, just this was sods law that he was expected to do better this year after a good year in general!
He could do what Goran Ivanisevic did with Wimbledon!

2 weeks ago he won the players final.
That was the first final he has won in the last 12 years!
I think that's why he has had so much expectation heaped on him this year and would indicate he's not past it.
Shame he has gone out so early.
