Timeline
John Schmidt (born April 12, 1973) is an American pool player, born in Keokuk, Iowa.
Nicknamed "Mr. 600", specialising in straight pool, Schmidt held the record for the highest made (626), until Jayson Shaw broke that record with a high run of 669 in January 2022.
At a young age, he played as a golfer, winning tournaments at high school and college.
He began playing pool at age 19, but didn't play his first professional tournament until he was aged 27 in 1999.
Schmidt won the U.S. Open 9-Ball Championships in 2006 defeating Rodolfo Luat in the final.
He was also part of the American team at two Mosconi Cups in 2006 and 2014.
Schmidt won the 2006 US Open 9-Ball Championship Championship, with a 11–6 victory in the final over Rodolfo Luat.
Schmidt had made a personal best run of 403 balls in 2007, but in 2018, he began a concerted, dedicated effort to defeat Mosconi's record, shooting six to eight hours a day, filming the sessions for verification.
Schmidt would later go on to win the Dragon 14.1 Tournament in 2012, winning 200–169 against Efren Reyes in the final.
Filmed at TAR Studio on July 13–15, 2012, Schmidt competed in an all-around challenge match against Corey Deuel in the disciplines of eight-ball, one-pocket, and ten-ball.
On May 27, 2019, at Easy Street Billiards in Monterey, California, Schmidt defeated the longstanding 14.1 pool record set by Willie Mosconi in 1954 of 526 with a video-recorded run of 626.
Critics have argued that Mosconi's record was made in competition while Schmidt simply set up break shots for himself, and that his video was never released.
Beginning May 8, 2019, the record was his fourth attempt.
Mike Panozzo, publisher of Billiards Digest, praised Schmidt's "focus and the perseverance to run 380, and then you miss and start over again."
Mosconi's record 526 happened under circumstances somewhat different from those that Schmidt faced.
Mosconi, then 40, was competing in an exhibition match with a man named Earl Bruney in Springfield, Ohio.
Having defeating Bruney, he just kept shooting until he reached 526.
Schmidt was purely going for the record, with no opponent, starting anew each time he fell short.
In similar fashion as Schmidt, the record would be later broken in 2022 by Jayson Shaw of Scotland, who ran 669.
Filmed at the Derby City Classic, Schmidt ran 112 in straight pool on video by Accu-Stats, sharing many insights on the DVD version.
