Neil Robertson became only the fourth player in the history of professional snooker to make 1,000 centuries, after firing in a break of 105 during his 6-1 defeat of Umut Dikme at International Championship qualifiying.
The Australian follows in the footsteps of Ronnie O’Sullivan, John Higgins and Judd Trump, who are the only other players to have achieved the feat. Next to pass that barrier is likely to be Mark Selby, who currently sits on 911 career centuries.
Robertson is no stranger to landmark achievements involving century breaks. In 2013/14 he became the first player to make 100 centuries in a single season.
The 43-year-old’s momentous 105 break came in the sixth frame this morning. He also made contributions of 87, 68 and 99.
