This week on Nicky Byrne HQ, Nicky chats to 1997 World Snooker Champion Ken Doherty about the remarkable journey to winning the title at the Crucible. Ken looks back on the pressure of that run, the mindset needed to stay calm under the spotlight, and the incredible welcome he received when he brought the trophy home to Dublin. He also reflects on discovering snooker as a young kid, the early days practising in local clubs, and the lasting influence of his father and family along the way.
