Snooker Legend Jimmy White pays tribute to Snooker’s Terry Griffiths who died aged 77 after a long battle with dementia. Terry won the 1979 World Championship beating Dennis Taylor 24-16 in the final. Filming & Interview by Liam Galvin
Terry was a legend. Jimmy has great hair for a man of his years. Was he not seriously balding back in the 80's, lol! Embrace the bald Jimmy, it's just so bad…
Dementia is really terrible, remember seeing Terry win the World Champs as a qualifier I think. Sipping tea (?) from his mug. Condolences to family and friends.

I always loved his long cue distance between hand and cue ball.
