    Just realised I put ten for the basketball question as well. I thought it was total number of players on the court. Apparently for me

    TBF, a few made that mistake and I may have phrased the question wrong, apologies

    Sometimes ignorance is bliss. I hadn't a clue who it was so was thinking along the lines of 'Ronnie O'Sullivan, he's been champion loads of times, maybe it's him'. :D
