The snooker world is mourning the loss of a legend as commentator Clive Everton, often hailed as the 'voice of snooker', has died at 87 years old.

Comedian and writer Mark Watson joined others in expressing their condolences online, remarking, "Ah what an amazing snooker man," and nostalgically recalling Clive as "The earliest voice I associate with the game, even before Ted . RIP." Further tributes highlighted his passion for his job, with one colleague noting: "What sad news. His love of snooker always shone through in his work." Fans shared their own thoughts, with one writing, "How sad. Legend. The voice of snooker for me," echoing the sentiment that Clive Everton's voice and legacy will resonate with snooker enthusiasts for generations to come.
