Former world snooker champion Terry Griffiths has died aged 77, after a long battle with dementia, his family has confirmed.

The Welshman won the 1979 world title, the Masters in 1980 and the UK Championship in 1982 to complete snooker's 'Triple Crown'.

Griffiths also reached a career-high third in the world rankings, and in 2007 was awarded an OBE for his services to the sport.

His son Wayne wrote on Facebook: "To our friends and snooker followers in general, we are deeply saddened to share the news of our loss.

"Terry Griffiths OBE passed away peacefully on 1st December, after a lengthy battle with dementia. He was surrounded by his family in his beloved hometown in South Wales.

"A proud Welshman, Terry was born in Llanelli, brought pride to Llanelli and now he has found peace in Llanelli. He would not have had it any other way."

RIP <rose>
