RONNIE O’SULLIVAN NAMES HIS TOP 5 SNOOKER LEGENDS
Snooker superstar Ronnie O’Sullivan has revealed his list of the greatest players in the history of the sport, and it’s causing quite a stir. In a recent press conference at the Shanghai Masters, O’Sullivan shared his top five ‘legend players’ of all time, but shockingly, he left himself off the list.
Topping O’Sullivan’s rankings is Stephen Hendry, followed by Steve Davis, Joe Davis, Ray Reardon, and John Higgins. When asked if he should be included in the list, the Rocket humbly responded, “I don’t name myself.” This surprising omission has sparked debate among fans and experts alike.
O’Sullivan’s respect for fellow player John Higgins is evident, as he has already included him in his personal legends list. The two snooker titans will face off once again, reigniting their long-standing rivalry. O’Sullivan praised Higgins’ recent form, stating, “He’s been playing really well so far this season, looked phenomenal in his matches here so far.”
In a recent match at the 2024 World Snooker, O’Sullivan demonstrated his dominance by defeating Jackson Page with a resounding 10-1 victory. Page described the experience of playing against O’Sullivan as a “nightmare,” highlighting the Rocket’s ability to put opponents in difficult positions. Despite his disappointment in his own performance, Page acknowledged O’Sullivan’s aura and the challenge of competing against one of the world’s best players.
Fans can look forward to O’Sullivan’s upcoming appearance in the World Snooker Championship on April 28th. Will the Rocket continue his winning streak and solidify his status as one of snooker’s all-time greats? Only time will tell.
