Currently on itv 4 this week. Anyone who is familiar with the crucible will know the Coventry man who always attends he has been shown yesterday and given a name check, also yesterday Murphy was took to a deciding frame by a woman called Evans 4-3. He then lost to Robertson 6-5 trump has just beat Maguire 4-0. Maguire had a broken ankle style boot thing on. tomorrow Ronnie O’Sullivan plays jimmy white currently Kyran Wilson is playing tipchai un nooh the winner will play trump this evening
Is White still competing? Thought he packed it in ages ago. Should be an entertaining game with him and Ronnie being mates and their flamboyant play styles although Ronnie's more of a steady Eddie these days.
Wow seen some snooker and Murphy was well in front no trouble against the lady She must have upt her game to get near
Ronnie is my favourite sportsman of all time, in any sport. I love his flawed personality, his persona and the utterly effortless way he can blow anyone away without puffing a cheek if he’s even 50% focused. Never have I known anyone just so naturally better than anyone else. Some boy. The number of titles he would have won with a permanent focus would have been utterly mind blowing.
That 5 minute 147 deserves to be up there with the greatest solo achievements in sport ever. Absolutely amazing to watch and it summed him up perfectly.
Agreed. And the sheer amount of times he’s ****ed off 147’s in his career when he’s had frames won is ridiculous. I doubt there will ever be a better player. I’m not sure how there could be. They could be equal and more focused and consistent, but even that would make them less of a character and therefore less brilliant than Ronnie. An absolute don of his trade if ever there was one.
Jimmy got his place by winning the seniors world championship which was played at the crucible fitting imo
O’Sullivan v White has just started, later Higgins v Bingham. The winners play best of 11 from 7pm this evening
