The latest news on January 20, 2022, Beijing time, "Rockets" Ronnie O'Sullivan said in an interview that Robertson is currently the most competitive player in the world stage, because all his abilities have reached the world's top level. Whether it's outstage, rhythm, defense, possession or the mentality of the game, no one in this world can surpass him. Robertson now has the best of himself, and he will have a good chance to storm the honor of world championship. So O'Sullivan also said that this year's World Championship will be the best time for Robertson to storm the championship, because his ability has surpassed all the players in this world.
O'Sullivan: Robertson is the most competitive
Since the start of the 2021/22 season, Robertson has won two championships and one runner-up despite dropping out of several races due to injury. He is the most stable of the Big Three and the most competitive player at the moment. O'Sullivan said: "Throughout the season, there are so many incredible things that have happened in the world of snooker. But Robertson's consistency was irreplaceable, he dropped out of some tournaments due to injuries, but when he returned, he became the most competitive player in the world. Trailing two strokes in the decider against Mark Williams, it wasn't an easy task, but he did. When this moment comes up, you should accept the fact that Robertson is the most competitive player and everyone can only be behind him. ”
O'Sullivan: Robertson's ability is the best
While Robertson's current competitive status is not at the peak of his career, O'Sullivan believes Robertson's personal abilities have reached the top. O'Sullivan said: "I think Robertson's ability is the best because he has reached the top level in all aspects of his ability. He knows when to attack, when to defend, when to fight, when to give up. It's a very scary logic because he understands where his strength is, he knows what he should do and when. This is the real top player in the world, because he is currently the best at all aspects of his ability, so he can play such a confident performance. He doesn't blindly choose his target, he only gives his opponent a fatal blow at key moments, and that's what he's capable of. The top strength is not terrible, what is terrible is that his thinking and psychological quality plus his strength have reached the top level. ”
O'Sullivan: Robertson or World Championships win
The 2021/22 season was a very extraordinary season, in which Robertson was the only player to win two championships, so he was also the best member of the Big Three this season. O'Sullivan said: "In this season, Robertson has been strong enough to play at his true level. I said he's always been the best player here, it's just that there's always some drama in the game. But this year will be a good opportunity for him, and I am optimistic that he will win the World Championship this year, although this is not the result I want, because I still hope to win the seventh world championship to complete my ultimate goal. But judging from the rational judgment of the season performance and comprehensive strength, he is definitely the most promising person to win the world championship. His moves are always steady, and he doesn't always have to be bothersome like me. His choices and goals are aligned, his mentality and competitiveness are at the top level, which is why he deserves to be looked after. When he has such a level, it's hard not to be optimistic about winning the world championship. After all, he is only one World Champion left before his second Grand Slam. ”
