Historic Decider in the Final | Jimmy White vs Cliff Thorburn | 1986 Classic Final

"The atmosphere out there at the moment is completely electric", commentated John Pulman 35 years ago.

Frame 25 (deciding frame): Cliff Thorburn vs Jimmy White, 1986 Classic final.

Jimmy White has already won numerous titles, including the Masters, but hasn't won a ranking title yet. He lost his three ranking finals, the second one to Steve Davis at the Crucible and the last one to Cliff Thorburn only three months earlier.

Things get complicated for Jimmy when a fluke strikes his hopes, as he can only win the title if he achieves a feat no one had previously accomplished in snooker.
