One could have almost predicted that, don't you think? It has only happened like 800 times before..

And yet, he'll still win the match.

It has always been a combination of Hendry and Davis, but it's cool Ronnie's throwing in some O'Sullivan as well these days...

I've now got an image in my head of Ronnie sitting in his shed with a pair of shears attacking his genital region.

Lol I was just wondering whether Ronnie trimmed.
I reckon I’ll stick to not bothering.

It's not worth it. Your pubic hair prevents bad bacteria from getting near your genitals. Grooming your pubic hair also puts you at risk of infection.

I think trimming is OK but completely shaving increases the risks of what you mention. Could be wrong about that though.
Shaving/waxing is a weird thing to have caught on in society.

Shaving is definitely worse, because you remove the barrier that would help prevent infection, and you're opening up lots of small wounds in the process. If you shave regularly these will never properly heal until you stop shaving.
Trimming still has it's risks though. It increases the chance that you will contract an STD.

If Ronnie's balls are as hairy as his arms then it would look like a little cockerel of hay in his garden after trimming.

Ronnie has only lost once in the Semi-final of the Masters, which was against Robertson in 2015. This will be his 14th Semi-final.

He’s not losing to Ding or Brecel. Once Allen went out he was basically all but in the final.

It would be surprising, but it's not impossible. Bingham, Day and Brecel would be one of the easiest runs to a Masters final you could hope for though.

Just catching up on the Ronnie match on youtube. When someone uploads it with the time between shots cut out, are they editing that themselves or is it some algorithm marmite?. Because if they're doing it themselves it seems a lot of work for a worse result.

I'm guessing that mostly applies to herpes?
Although I guess if you're making small cuts when you shave that it can apply to other STIs too.

I wonder if it's to avoid having it taken down?

I assume it's just edited manually. I like to watch them when I don't have time for a proper match

Nah, I think it's a Thing of sorts, "short form" they call it. Some people prefer it

I've found another now that's got the whole match, but that was the first that came up. Can't be that hard for world snooker to find.

I understand the appeal of highlights but the amount of cutting just made it jarring to me.
