Trump owned Ronnie before, but still lost today. What makes you think Murphy, Maguire or Ding can't do the same to Ronnie?

In fact that match could mark the revival of Ronnie O'Sullivan ...

I don't but it boosts Ronnie's chances because he has the form and the mental edge over all these players.
He was full of confidence and in great form and still he beat Trump just narrowly.

Absolutely, Ronnie might have a mental edge over all of those except Selby, but they could all beat him if they´re on form and Ronnie is slightly worse... Ronnie wont have an easy match whoever comes through, I can garantee you that

i would say the next time they meet whether it be in a short a long format match it fifty fifty in terms of who will win
mark my words neither one of maguire ding or murphy will beat ronnie this week

jojo wrote:in my opinion selby the only player who can beat ronnie this week the others have too many mental scars and or a very poor record against him
look at it this way ronnie never played great in the masters yet comfortably beat ding
similarly maguire played out of his skin against ronnie and everyone was saying maguire will win yet without maguires level dipping too much ronnie kept with him and at one stage won five frames in a row or from 6-3 down won 6-1
i would still make ronnie favourite against selby even though he doesnt like playing him though if selby plays well he could turn him over
as for the others forget it

PTC4 Semi-Final: Ronnie 3-1 ahead, loses 3-4
World Champs 2010 Quarter-Final: Ronnie 9-5 ahead(or something like that), loses 11-13
Masters 2010 Final: the most painful for me, and maybe for him: Ronnie 9-6 ahead, loses 9-10
Welsh Open 2008 Final: Ronnie 8-5 ahead, loses 8-9

you can't possibly put the PTC match in there ...
The other ones are correct but Ronnie also has some faboulus wins over him:
UK semi final 2007: 9-8
UK quarter final 2009: 9-3
Masters final 2009: 10-8
it's pretty even in big matches ...
