Ronnie O’Sullivan wants boring players thrown out of snooker
Englishman, Ronnie O’Sullivan has revealed his desire to remove boring players out of the game of snooker. The legendary potter says he detests those uninteresting players who add nothing to the entertainment
of the game and he would love to stage his own snooker event without those cuemen.
The former triple Champion suggested staging an event in China, as it is a huge market for the sport and all the players would like to play there. However, he only wants the most exciting and entertaining
players to take part in the game, not his rivals who could kill the game with their boring game-play. He also explained why he wants to throw boredom out of the game and make it more entertaining and attractive.
O'Sullivan wrote on Twitter, “Snooker needs him bad.. There are a lot of uninteresting players on the circuit who could kill the game. Don't ask me to mention names. I would love to set up my own
team of players and have a proper tournament I promise it would be a winner.”
“Maybe China would be the place to do this??? I know all the players i would invite would come and play... It would have all the right ingredients to make everyone buzz... The bores have to go.. We
are in the entertainment business.. :)”
“You play to WIN... rather than playing not to lose... I detest those players.. There not winners.. I better shut up now:)”
The Rocket, O’Sullivan, got his love for the game back just before the World Snooker Championship 2011. He was about to pull out of the mega event but before making a firm decision, he visited a sports
psychiatrist, Dr Steve Peters, who inserted a new spirit inside of him and he came back to the game.
The Essex Exocet, O’Sullivan, reached to the quarter-final stage of the Betfred.com World Snooker Championship 2011 where he lost to the World Champion, John Higgins. The player did however, show
a classy display of his snooker skills he is famous for.
The remarks of O’Sullivan correspond to Barry Hearn’s desire of making the game more attractive to the viewers of all age groups. However, his criticism of pedestrian cueists may offend the ones being
targeted and they might come up with a harsh response.
