Ronnie admitting that he should have more Masters titles than 7.
Mentioned his chokes vs S Davis, Hunter and Selby.
I would also count the final frame vs Higgins in 2006 as a choke.
4 titles choked away.

It's nice to see him being honest about that.
I've always felt that 2004, 2006, and 2010 were the worst ones.

Where does Ronnie get this reputation for being charismatic from?

His show on Eurosport was pretty good.
Ronnie on Eyrosport is better than on BBC or ITV

Yeah I think Ronnie's the first player I've heard saying the pockets are too big.

Ronnie O'Sullivan lives to fight another day, and in this instance it's Ryan.

I’ve thought for at least 10 years that the pockets are too easy, when the top players hit there rhythm they just make break after break and it looks so simple and now lesser players can do it as well, make them tighter and and the best will come thru, but bazza won’t let it happen, bigger pockets bigger trebles meen more entertaining apparently?

Ronnie won in 2005 and it was one of the highest standards of snooker I have ever seen. Nobody could have beaten him in that final.

I think it's Ronnie's best performance in a final, ever. He had breaks of 134, 107, 102, 97, 95, 79, 79, 79, 75, 58.

Ronnie has promised Eurosport that he would save #1,000 for one of their events, which means that he will probably plan to get to 1,000 at the Welsh Open...
