Record-breaking day at Cambridge!
Two new records were established at the final ABC event of the year, played at Cambridge yesterday. John Murphy became the first player in ABC history to make 3 breaks over 150 in a single game (157, 170 and 177 in his first-round match), and Phil Mumford made the first-ever double century in a Plate game (229 in the 30-minute semi-final).

ABC Top-20 Lists
It's been eight seasons now that we've kept detailed records of all matches played in ABC events, so we thought it was time to start publishing some Top-20 Lists in various categories. To begin with we have highest one-hour aggregate scores, highest individual scores in one-hour matches, highest breaks and most breaks over 50. Even before the 2002-03 season that we have partial records of ABC events going back to 1998 but for the purposes of these lists we have made the 2002-03 season the cut-off point.
