O'Sullivan starts against Higgins

Ronnie O’Sullivan will begin the defence of his PartyPoker.com Premier League title against 2007 world champion John Higgins.

’The Rocket’ beat Scot Higgins 7-4 in a gripping showcase final last season - and the two will once again go head-to-head on September 11 at the Grimsby Auditorium in the first week of group matches.
