Paul Hunter dies at 27

[HUGECOOL]

idk him. But he's dead now. rip.

Paul Hunter has died at the age of 27 after a battle with cancer. The Leeds player was taken into the Kirkwood Hospice in Huddersfield last Friday and died on Monday evening.
The three-time Masters champion was diagnosed with dozens of neuro endocrine tumours on the lining of his stomach in March 2005.
Hunter would have been 28 on Saturday. He leaves a wife, Lindsey, and a daughter, Evie Rose, who was born on Boxing Day of last year.
Former world champion John Parrot was among the first to pay tribute.
"Paul certainly brought a touch of glamour to the game - they called him 'the Beckham of the baize'," Parrot told BBC Five Live.
"And his performances at Wembley were fantastic. To win three titles was tremendous.
"He was a happy-go-lucky man, always played with a smile on his face and never had a bad word to say about anyone."
