snooker world championship final

The questions in that interview were not asked

oh shit

fuck up selby

oh dear the grapes are sour

tory looking cunt

Ronnie interview at Eurosport was hilarious and oddly moving.

Man, what a day.

Selby interview was fascinating. There is a degree of truth (that the commentary in the studio weren't acknowledging after, even though they were saying something like this when Ronnie was 2 down with 3 to play) to the way that Ronnie seemed to be chucking the game in. But Selby was really gonna clear that on one visit after being frozen out for 2.5 frames? And Ronnie's safety against Selby on those exchanges were utterly measured (as were the many exchanges at the beginning of the frame too).

Going to spend a long, long time processing what happened out there.

I just love Ronnie O'Sullivan. I always loved him, but the day he came to canvass in Chingford against Iain Duncan Smith was the day my love and respect reached new highs!#ItsAllAboutTheCueAction ♥️ https://t.co/VUJcPKciuA

he's been disrespectful to IDS there

Think it's telling Selby calls Ronnie's Russian roulette shots "disrespectful". Selby's good snookers are what got Ronnie in that state of mind, where he was annoyed and almost threw the match. That's Selby's achievement, he should've seen it as a compliment and gotten down and dirty even more (he did once, when taking like 2 mins of "thinking" before finally deciding, yes, replace the white for Ronnie plz, it was just to annoy his opponent). All part of it imo.

agreed

otm

Warmed to Wilson but hoping Ronnie can close it out.

Gutsy clearance from Wilson: 1-1

dreadful cue action

3-1 Ronnie. Very fluent amongst them. Wilson missed a shot with the rest to allow Ronnie and he made a 70+ break.

Break is one I'm adding to the movies to avoid list

Haha yeah that looks dire

This will be a tough affair for Kyren I reckon

They share the next two.

People wondering about the slow start to the final are reaching for stuff to say.

Ronnie makes the first century of the final. Beautiful, as always when he's like this.

Bollox, just when I need to go out I miss the 100

Ronnie really picking the scraps off to go 6-2

these youngsters eh

as soon as i post that, one-visit snooker from wilson & a probable century

what's ronnie playing at here

mind games

well played, KW, grinding it out

ronnie stop being a massive baby challenge

that is the only way o'sullivan was winning that frame

this guy's pish. ronnie should be steamrollering him

It's curiously fascinating to watch.

whoah what a shot!

from ron

.. and omg as well!

tf was up with the path on that red

need to be putting them in if you want to win the world champs lad

big BDO energy

Someone found his form back

It's still mediocre but Ronnie finally made a longpot, some nice ones, and leads 13-8.

^^ got ahead of myself there, still 12-8, but c'mon right ?:)

Looks like Ronnie's going into tonight's session needing just one frame to win

6th world title

he has truly backed his chat

Doubted Ronnie would ever win this again. And if it is the last time I don't think I'll ever forget his three frames against Selby. Felt like a last gift.
