O'Sullivan is called a "rocket" by fans, this is to describe his fast playing speed, like a rocket, O'Sullivan is the shortest player in snooker 147 full score, in the 1997 World Championships, he took 5 minutes and 20 seconds, successfully scored 147 full score, this time record, maintained so far 27 years, still no one can break it, why is it so difficult to break? Many fans may be very curious, about this question, Ding Junhui once gave the answer in an interview!
When asked about O'Sullivan's record of 147 points for the fastest, why has no one been able to break it so far? Ding Junhui said that it is not easy for any professional snooker player to complete a full score of 147, and O'Sullivan completed 147 points in only 5 minutes and 20 seconds, which is even more difficult, which requires excellent feel and strong talent, as far as all current snooker players are concerned, only O'Sullivan can have these two points.
In fact, Ding Junhui is also telling the truth, many Taiwan fans don't know how difficult it is to score 147 full scores? In fact, this has particularly high technical requirements for players, to score 15 red balls and 15 black balls in a row, and then clear all the colored balls, a total of 36 balls, it can be said that any small mistake, can not complete this result, the World Championships have not seen 147 full scores for 7 years, some players, may have not achieved such a feat in their entire career.
And O'Sullivan only took 5 minutes and 20 seconds to score 147 full marks, with an average of about 8.9 seconds, which also includes time to think, former Chinese snooker player Pang Weiguo said that even if the ball is set up for us to play, it is extremely difficult to complete it in such a short time.
At present, Ding Junhui is ranked seventh in the world of 147 perfect scores, he has now played a total of 6 times, and O'Sullivan has completed the most times in snooker history, he has completed a total of 15 times 147 full scores, I have to sigh, O'Sullivan's talent and ability are really different from ordinary people, watching him play easily and happily, any ball that seems difficult to solve, he can solve it perfectly and quickly, which is why everyone likes O'Sullivan.
