This week sees the greatest of the Triple Crown events kick off as the action in the main draw gets underway for the 2023 World Snooker Championship in Sheffield. The world-famous event will, as ever, take place at the legendary Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, Yorkshire for the 47th consecutive season. Ronnie O'Sullivan is the defending champion, having beaten Judd Trump in what was a 18-13 win for The Rocket in the 2022 final, and he returns to defend his crown in what has been a so far underwhelming campaign for the snooker superstar.
Only a few yards from the stage door of the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, gateway to a timeless sporting tardis where a potting potpourri of bow-tied giants have roamed since 1977, something stirs.

The tills at a sporting memorabilia shop bearing Ronnie O’Sullivan’s name – aptly titled the Ronnie O’Sullivan snooker shop – move faster at this time of the year than the great man himself.
Neil Robertson says he is hoping to learn from Ronnie O'Sullivan's World Championship victory last year as he aims to become a multiple world champion. Robertson has struggled for form since the 2021-22 season when he won four major titles, exiting the World Championship last year at the last-16 stage. Ad The Australian says he was impressed by O'Sullivan's ability to win matches and seal his seventh world title even though he felt the Rocket was not playing his best snooker.
