World champion Ronnie O'Sullivan cruised into the quarter-finals of the UK Championship with a 6-0 thrashing of China's Zhou Yuelong in York.O'Sullivan recorded the highest break of the final stages to date, a total clearance of 137, in the third frame and completed the whitewash with a break of 103 against a woefully out-of-form opponent.Zhou scored just 81 points in the entire match and 63 of those came in frame five before he missed a red to the middle and O'Sullivan made 82 to pile on the misery.O'Sullivan insists he stands alone in his ability to rise to the big occasion, telling the BBC: "I don't think anyone has (it)."There's definitely not a Stephen Hendry or a John Higgins in my book.
Some people do it in spells, but to maintain it, it's not easy."I never had a problem with crowds and the bigger the occasion the more I liked it.
If you can't handle it you're going to struggle."I think it's in your make-up, you're born with the love of pressure and the love of big occasions.
You can't teach that, you've either got it or you haven't."Stephen Hendry at 15, we all knew he was different. Steve Davis was different, Tiger Woods.
