Haha, loved that, he doesn't give a damn what he says!
Anyway, the right man won, not sure Robertson, Selby, Murphy or Ding or any of the other top men could have stopped him.

When he is in the mood there isn't a player out there that can live with him- absolute different class

For his level of ability winning 5 should be a minimum, remarkable talent..
Is no one not watching the snooker? I'm not a fan of individual sports and don't really have any faves except Monfills for tennis but do enjoy snooker.
I like maflin and selby but seriously no better sight than watching ronnie when he is playing like I have better things to do with my time.

He is the most naturally talented player to ever pick up a cue for me. Kyren Wilson is playing well but if he keeps his focus can’t see anyone stopping Ronnie this year as he seems up for it.
He needs 2 more titles to catch Hendry so hope he does it

I have got tired of Ronnie over the past few seasons, he can be pretty disrespectful towards other players. No doubt he is the best of all time though.
As for who can stop him, only person I think is Judd, if he can find his form. Seems to have struggled since snooker returned without a crowd but him or Robertson are the two form players this season so maybe Robertson could stop Ronnie as well but I think Judd has the better chance.

I read ronnie's comments last night. Isn't it just that snooker is not an athletic sport? We think in most sports the time frame is late teens until early/mid 30's depending on how much you rely on pace.
You also don't do your acl or what ever playing snooker. So a generational talent like ronnie could dominate for ages.

No he literally lays into the young players saying they aren't that good that is why him, Williams and Higgins are still able to compete. What I do find ironic is that Judd has dominated snooker for the past 18 months....and no one can get close to him.
It will be difficult to get a class of 92 again, I mean those 3 are exceptional talents so yeah if you constantly compare to that generation, it will be difficult to match it.
I think he just likes to moan at something to be honest, whether its young talent, scheduling, tournament prize money, 147 prize money, ranking points. He is just someone who enjoys a moan.

He fucking dominated the second session earlier on today. Final session is going to be great and i like Williams.
Im glad Trump is out - not really a fan of him. Selby was awesome and dominated Robertson who tried to play Selby at his game but failed slightly.

Playing Selby must be like slow torture at times. I admire him as a player, but he annoys me. Has Ronnie’s number as well.
I put money on Selby during the first session of the QF’s. Got 6/1 which I’m well pleased about as he was down to 5/2 today. Although I’d still quite like him to lose in a way
