Ronnie O’Sullivan claims to experience more buzz from breakfast than winning the UK Championship.
Ronnie O’Sullivan, celebrating his 48th birthday, became the oldest winner of the UK Snooker Championship, winning the title for a record eighth time. Despite the excitement, O’Sullivan admitted that he gets more of a buzz from running and having breakfast with his mate.
O’Sullivan admits to not being as excited about winning as he used to be, stating that he goes through the motions often.
Chinese player Ding Ding made an impressive effort against defending champion Mark Allen, but O’Sullivan’s early advantage and costly errors led to a second consecutive final defeat, leaving Ding contemplating a second consecutive defeat.
The 36-year-old, who had three early frame-winning opportunities, eventually regained his lead in the first frame with a break of 84, but showed impatience in the next, despite trailing 51.
