Kevin, from Edinburgh, responded to one of those articles regarding Dundee pool players going to play in America. “I remember watching a tournament on TV from the USA called the St Andrews Cup,” recalled Kevin. “This featured snooker players such as Chris Shade, Graeme Dott, Jimmy White, Steve Davis and Craig MacGillivray. “The pool player was Mike Hunter, from Broughty Ferry, who went to America. “The commentator was Sid Waddell. “Mike’s nickname was ‘The Bounty Hunter’. “Davis beat Mike in a semi-final, with White beating Shade in the other semi. “In the final, Davis triumphed over White. “MacGillivray often appeared on Big Break but he is currently back in the game’s amateur ranks. “As for Mike, I don’t know what happened to him but he was always a great player.” [Formstack id=2098397 viewkey=k4fkCZ4KtH] This article originally appeared on the Evening Telegraph website.
