Episode description
Following the deeply sad news that former ranking event finalist Dene O'Kane has passed away, today we bring you a special edition of the WPBSA Snooker Podcast to remember New Zealand's greatest ever player.
Our regular host Michael McMullan is joined by WPBSA Chairman Jason Ferguson and leading snooker broadcaster David Hendon to pay tribute to a player who travelled across the globe to pursue his snooker dream.
We reflect on a distinguished career which saw him twice reach the World Championship quarter-finals and career-high world ranking of 18, as well as his character and affable nature away from the baize which endeared him to so many.
