End of an era - snooker legend retires

Six-time world champion Steve Davis reflects on his career as one of snooker's greats.

Davis, 58, was a household name in the UK and elsewhere as the sport gained new popularity in the 1980s.

His nerve-jangling 1985 'black ball final' defeat by Dennis Taylor finished past midnight, but was watched by a domestic television audience of more than 18 million people.

Davis talks to ´óÏó´«Ã½ Sport's Frank Keogh about his career, highs and lows, the future and what he considers his "biggest result of all-time".
