Rocket Ronnie O’Sullivan happy to cool his jets as he looks for title number six

2019 Betfred Snooker World Championship – Day Four – The Crucible

Ronnie O’Sullivan is prepared to take the slow road into the record books as he prepares to kick off his bid for a sixth world snooker title at the Crucible on Sunday against the fastest current player in the game.

O’Sullivan famously delivered a 147 in five minutes and 20 seconds in his match against Mick Price in the 1997 Championships but says he has no intention of trying to keep pace with Thai qualifier Thepchaiya Un-Nooh, who has been timed at less than 17 seconds per shot.
