Has Ronnie Under Achieved?

But what I would love to see would be Ronnie O´Sullivan and Kyren Wilson being on a collision course. The present versus the future. Ronnie versus the red-hot Kyren Wilson. The Essex man still holds that unrivalled flair and precision. But Kyren got bit that, too, and he can be a slightly more machinery-like than O´Sullivan.

I can´t see Judd being able to compete with Ronnie if they have that long exhibition matches - series. I would really like to see Judd playing really good, but.. Too many buts there.

Seems that I finally have got a really powerfull ally with Kyren.

I think we should take on board Fry's point and not refer to a five times world champion as being an "under achiever", even if Ronnie does it himself. I think it's slightly condescending.

Slightly delay in saying this, but for once I agree with you.
