Steve
Davis, Poker Celebrity!
Steve Davis was born on August 22, 1957 in London, England.
Davis began playing snooker at the age of 12 and became a snooker
professional in 1978 and just three years later he was ranked
Number 1. Davis has an incredible tournament record including
six World Championships. In the ten seasons from 1980/81 he
reached eight world finals, winning six and won fifteen other
ranking events out of a possible 36. Davis also had eight victories
in major tournaments which only later achieved ranking status,
two Wembley Masters, five Irish, three Scottish and some twenty-four
other wins, all in ten seasons and you have some idea how far
ahead of the rest he was.
Steve Davis was like a machine in his prime, rarely
making mistakes. He became known as Steve 'interesting' Davis,
as his error-free style contrasted sharply with the likes of
Jimmy White and Alex Higgins, who were great snooker players,
but lacked Davis's disciplined approach.
Steve Davis likes sports and games. He's written
a book on chess, and has been seen playing poker on television
along with the likes of Stephen Hendry and Mark Williams.
