Neil Robertson has joined an exclusive club of just four snooker players who have made 1000 professional centuries.
The Australian reached the milestone in the low-key setting of an International Championship qualifier against Umut Dikme at Ponds Forge in Sheffield on Tuesday morning.
He made the notable century in the sixth frame with a break of 105, having threatened to do so in the previous two with efforts of 87 and 68.
The Thunder from Down Under went on to win the match 6-1, with another fabulous break of 99 in the final frame.
It was something of a shame that no fans were there to see the brilliant achievement, with the qualifiers played behind closed doors.
Robertson will be delighted to reach 1000 tons, though, joining Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump and John Higgins in hitting the landmark.
O’Sullivan is at the top of the tree for tons, with 1300 to his name, followed by Trump on 1106.
Next in line to join this elite group is Mark Selby, who is on 911 centuries ahead of his game against Steven Hallworth on Tuesday afternoon.
There is a big drop after the Jester from Leicester, with Stephen Hendry boasting the sixth most professional centuries with 777.
The race is on to be the first player to make 100 centuries again this season, with £100,000 on offer.
Judd Trump landed the hefty prize last season, reaching the century of centuries during the World Championship, making 107 tons in total over the campaign.
It was the second time Trump has made the century of centuries in a season and will be in the running to do so again this time round.
World champion Zhao Xintong will also fancy his chances as he has already reached 22 centuries this season, more than any other player, despite a fairly slow start to the campaign in terms of results.
The 28-year-old made the semi-finals of the Shanghai Masters, but that remains the best run of his campaign so far.
O’Sullivan has already landed another huge bonus on the line this season by making two 147s in the same game against Chris Wakelin at the Saudi Arabia Snooker Masters.
£147,000 was offered to any player who made two maximums over the three Triple Crown events (World Championship, Masters and UK Championship) and the Saudi Masters.
The Rocket only needed one event, in fact he only needed that one match, to make his two 147s.
