Hendry surprised the snooker world in May 2012 when he retired from the game after his quarter-final defeat at the world championship. His 27th and final campaign at the Crucible was one to remember. He was at his fluent best in recording a 147 maximum break in his first-round match before he destroyed defending champion John Higgins 13-4 in the second round.
