In 1990, when the 21-year-old Hendry defeated Jimmy White 18:12 in the World Professional Championship, he became the youngest world champion in history.

When the final reached the 35 rounds that decided the outcome, the championship seemed to be in Jimmy White's possession. There are enough red balls scattered on the table to make Jimmy White a world champion for a time. However, Jimmy White made a mistake and hit a black ball in situ. "Everyone, including me, doesn't want White to make this mistake. I'm ready to step forward to shake White's hand and express my heartfelt congratulations to him. White deserves this championship title," Hendry said. However, he controlled his emotions, left his seat, and ended the tournament with a cold 58 points.
