I said neither of those things.
I said he misses more often than MANY. Selby, Higgins, Williams, Ding, and possibly Judd and Robbo, in my estimation. That’s not most.
The weakest top player at escaping snookers is Murphy, by some distance.

I think that’s cause you watch Ronnie’s matches more than other players so you get this false impression, it’s similar as people say Trump get more flukes than others. For one, I remember MJW has lost several matches when his opponents needed snookers and he failed to escape. I don’t remember Ronnie lost any significant match doing that

Judd does get more flukes, come on.

I fully expect him to pot all 15 reds on the break off at some point.

Conclusive proof.

Iranu wrote:Every player in the game has got out of 4 cushion snookers. He’s also failed to escape simple one cushion snookers.
And as I said, I don’t think he’s BAD at it. Just not as good as others part of his game.
