Hendry will seeking to recapture former glories
Date of birth: 13/01/69

Career earnings: £6,667,236

What more can be said about arguably the greatest snooker player of all time?

Seven World Championship titles, five UK Championships, two British Opens and six Benson and Hedges Masters crowns put the Perthshire Scot head and shoulders above the rest.

This season Hendry has reached a total of 505 career century breaks - over 200 more than Steve Davis, who lies in second.

Hendry has recently come off the back of a defeat to Ronnie O'Sullivan in the final of the Regal Masters.

Despite the fact his last UK win came in 1996, it would be foolish to rule out the seven-times world champion.
