Does Cope stand a chance against the Rocket?

Question

Jamie Cope’s victory against Ding Junhui in the first round shouldn’t have been as much of a surprise as it was considering they were only separated in the world rankings by five places.

But taking on Ronnie O’Sullivan is a different matter entirely. It’s simple: if the Rocket wants to win this match, he will, and there will be little Cope can do about it. But if he comes into this match with a lacklustre approach, a shock can’t be ruled out entirely.
