I saw John Hendy Hill TWICE on Grady, and Grady had that big fat set of nuts to keep him in. I could see Grady was uncomfortable from watching the Cueball and his motions.
Grady must have had(excuse my candid typing) possibly a stroke and some hip/leg problems. I never saw him comfortable at the table, and some of his moving was riddled with scratches, safety leaks, etc. His bridge arm showed signs of poblems, held near his chest, and he was limping rather hard.
He fought a hard PHYSICAL battle, and struggled in the game accordingly. He missed many shots I figured were 95% make or better as well.
I'm sure John, the gentleman he is, will allow a rematch when either Grady improves healthwise or becomes more adapted to his condition.
Grady, if you are reading this, it absolutely broke me down to see what a struggle you stuck through. My heart goes out to you, and it just shows courage and nuts that you hung in there.
That said, John seems to play well, and appeared to be 'in it' from the beginning. He played well enough to win, and congrats. Some shot-making errors, but good overall.
I must interject my personal opinion, I would stake a healthy Grady to play John.
Hang in there Grady. I feel I speak for many when I say this, we love you and wish you the best. Thank you for all you have done.

LOL. When a player plays bad he's sick? This match was set up over a month ago. If he was sick I'm sure they would have rescheduled. He might have looked sick by his shot selection, which was questionable to say the least. How 'bout John out-played Grady. Nice shootin' John.
