On an emotionally exhausting evening in 1986 Alex Higgins and Stephen Hendry stepped out in front of a crowd of thousands to contest the title for the Irish Masters. It as a match that was to be remembered as a thrilling contest between one of the game's great champions and a rising star for whom greatness clearly lay ahead.
What ensued that evening was a hard fought battle in which Hendry edged towards victory with an 8-6 lead only for Higgins to dig deep and summon the skill and craft that so endeared him to his fans. Still within a frame of defeat Higgins reduced his arrears to 8-7 and subsequently triumphed in a tense finale that will be remembered, in championship winning terms, as the Hurricane's Last Hurrah.
