Ronnie O’Sullivan Into Crucible Final
Written on May 3, 2008 – 12:19 pm | by Keith Neo
I did not watch the entire play yesterday to see Ronnie O’Sullivan beat Stephen Henry in the evening. However, I did watch the morning session when the former led the scoreline 12-4 into the break.
It was incredible; I liked both players, but I guess when it comes to the games of the Titans, results can go either way. It was a magnificent scene where Ronnie stood up to clear the table, leaving nothing less of a comeback from Stephen Henry.
The world class champion is on course for his third world title after storming to a 17-7 victory over his rival in the semi-finals on Friday. With one of the two potential title holder out, I would say Ronnie O’Sullivan as being the favourite to win the championship.
The two-time world champion showed all his skills, effortlessly switching from left to right-handed as required, while keeping the cue ball under the tightest of control throughout. The match will have brought back uncomfortable memories for Hendry, who lost 17-4 to O’Sullivan at the same stage of the tournament in 2004.
Anyway, well done to two players!
