With both semi finals currently underway at the Crucible we look ahead to the final and what’s at stake – both financially and historically.
Ronnie O'Sullivan is setting the standard for other snooker players to follow both on and off the table, according to his fellow six-time world champion Steve Davis. O'Sullivan has been in glorious form at the Crucible Theatre as he chases a record-equalling seventh world title. Ad/> After completing a 10-5 win over David Gilbert from 3-0 behind in the first round a week ago, the 38-time ranking event winner enjoyed a thumping 13-4 victory over former Masters holder Mark Allen in the last 16 on Saturday.
Luca Brecel is very much on board with calls to modernise snooker, believing dress codes, length of matches and the choice of television pundits need to be updated.
This year, Ronnie O’Sullivan left the pre-tournament controversy to someone else. O’Sullivan, himself a rare straight-talker in the increasingly sanitised world of professional sport, laughed offHossein Vafaei’s bizarre rant against him after the Iranian called for the six-times world champion’s retirement as a way of somehow saving snooker. Ad/> Ironically it felt like a classic O’Sullivan interview, starting with some reasonably argued points before descending into wildly over the top conclusions.
Ronnie O’Sullivan has shrugged off the prospect of equalling Stephen Hendry’s record of seven world snooker titles on the eve of his first-round match against former semi-finalist David Gilbert at the Crucible.

Studying the footage of failing to put a foot wrong on Monday 21 April 1997, even O'Sullivan – a record 38-time ranking event winner with six world titles, seven Masters, 15 competitive 147s and over 1150 centuries to his name – probably wonders how he reached the potting promised land in only his fifth year at the Crucible Theatre.
For an unassuming neighbourhood bar, Electrik in Chorlton has had more than its fair share of star turns. Thanks to its famous ‘One Deck’ nights, where renowned music fans have free reign to play what they like on a single turntable, it’s caused roadblocks in the past.
Nigel Bond is set to bring down the curtain on snooker's 33-year link back to the sport's 1980s golden era after suffering defeat in World Championship qualifying in Sheffield. '00-147' was the only figure still playing on the World Snooker Tour without needing a wild card having turned professional in 1989, the same year Steve Davis lifted the last of his six world titles, and has announced his retirement with immediate effect.
