Beijing time on November 18 news, recently, O'Sullivan and Trump on the bar, the two celebrities look at each other unhappy. Earlier, Trump accused O'Sullivan of losing faith and no longer being firm. Today, O'Sullivan responds by thinking he's 46 years old, has won countless titles, and doesn't need someone else to define his success.
O'Sullivan won his sixth World Championship 15 months ago, but since then, O'Sullivan hasn't won the title. In the last game, he lost to Higgins.
Trump bluntly said that O'Sullivan is no longer an invincible "Rocket", "he is losing faith, after a period of not winning the championship, he is no longer firm, others have a chance to beat him!" Now, O'Sullivan has met the top 16 players and has no certainty of winning. Now, no one is afraid to play against him, and in the eyes of many people, anyone is enough to beat him. ”
Being so looked down upon by his opponents, O'Sullivan responded. "I don't care what people are saying. I don't play for the championship anymore, I don't play for the benefits that are possible, I'm just playing because I want to play. ”
O'Sullivan argues that Trump is not yet qualified to comment on himself, "I'm 46 years old and still in my current position, and I define success in my own way." ”
Currently ranked in the world, Trump is 2nd, O'Sullivan is 3rd and Selby is 1st! O'Sullivan holds six world titles, while Trump has won the World Championships. Objectively speaking, O'Sullivan is 46 years old, but he is still world-class, which is remarkable enough. Ding Junhui is only 34 years old, but his state has declined significantly.
After O'Sullivan makes such a statement, there will soon be a battle of proof. In the champions league group stage, O'Sullivan will play against Bingham, if he wins, he will play against the winners of Higgins and Ding Junhui, and if he wins 2 consecutive games, O'Sullivan will reach the top 4. And the semi-final opponent waiting for them will be Yan Bingtao! Yan Bingtao has already spoken, hoping to play against O'Sullivan, and does not know whether the "Rockets" can successfully advance to the final four.
