description: "James Warren White is an English professional snooker player, commentator and pundit. Nicknamed \"The Whirlwind\" because of his swift and attacking style of play, he has won ten ranking titles, placing him twelfth on the all-time list of ranking event winners. He has won two of snooker's Triple Crown events, the Masters in 1984 and the UK Championship in 1992, but has lost all six of the World Snooker Championship finals he contested. He finished runner-up to Steve Davis in 1984, to Stephen Hendry in 1990, 1992, 1993, and 1994, and to John Parrott in 1991. He is widely regarded as one of the best players never to have won the World Championship."
