O'Sullivan keeps £1million 'Ronnie Slam' dream alive as he becomes oldest Masters champ ever… but can't lift trophy

  RONNIE O’SULLIVAN has become the OLDEST champion of the Masters – 29 years after he became the YOUNGEST. But his elbow was so sore that he couldn't even lift the trophy! 6 Ronnie O'Sullivan won his eighth Masters title with victory over Ali Carter Credit: Getty 6 O'Sullivan's elbow was too sore to lift the trophy... so his kids picked it up instead Credit: Getty Yet following his 10-7 victory over Ali Carter, the £1million Ronnie Slam is still on this season as he chases perfection in the snooker Triple Crowns. Despite not being anywhere near his fluid best, while struggling with the effects of jetlag, the world No.1 killed the hopes of Carter’s big breakthrough at Ally Pally. Stuart Bingham had been the oldest winner aged 43 in 2020 but that has been overtaken in the record books by the ageless O’Sullivan, who is 48 years and 40 days. It is 23rd success across the three big tournaments in the sport and underlines his outstanding longevity given he won the fir...

Ronnie O'Sullivan Fastest 147 in History 5 minutes 8 seconds 1997 World Championship

  Blessed with the rare gift of being able to play to a high standard both left-handed and right-handed, he made the fastest 147 on record at the 1997 World Championship, completing the feat in just 5 minutes and 8 seconds. - World Snooker Ronnie O'Sullivan's first 147 break against Mick Price in their second round tie at the 1997 world championship set a still-standing world record for the fastest maximum in the history of the game. Guinness World Records recorded the time of the break at 5 minutes and 20 seconds. However, an investigation undertaken by Deadspin in 2017 revealed that the time recorded by Guinness is incorrect because the timer was started too early on the BBC footage. Breaks are not officially timed in snooker and the official rules of snooker do not specify how they should be timed, instead leaving the timing to the discretion of the broadcaster.  The only timing methodology World Snooker sanctions...

World Championship 2025: Ronnie O'Sullivan hints at dramatic Crucible return with 'preparation' event in Saudi Arabia

Hình ảnh
  Ronnie O'Sullivan could take a trip down memory lane by announcing his return to action at the 49th World Championship in Sheffield after an extended absence from the sport. The seven-time Crucible champion has not played in a ranking event since November, but famously took 10 months away from the game after winning the world title in 2012 before making a glorious title defence in 2013. Will he or won't he? It is the question anybody with a vested or even passing interest in snooker will be asking ahead of the 49th World Championship in Sheffield next month. After failing to compete in a major ranking event since the UK Championship in November in York, will Ronnie O'Sullivan mark his return to the sport by appearing at the Crucible Theatre for a record-extending 33rd straight year? O'Sullivan plans to travel to Saudi Arabia to participate in a coaching session with former player Nigel Bond, the 1995 world finalist, at his new snooker academy in Riyadh ahead of the Wo...
