Ronnie O’Sullivan shows his genius with ‘party trick’ shot in World Championship final

Ronnie O’Sullivan produced a magnificent shot dubbed the ‘cocked hat double’ on a re-spotted black against Judd Trump in the World Championship final on Sunday afternoon.

The six-time world champion, regarded by many as the greatest snooker player ever, won the dramatic fourth frame with a brilliant shot that’s been described as a ‘party trick’ by Eurosport.

O’Sullivan, aware that missing the bottom pocket would risk leaving Trump with an easy opening, improvised by hitting the black off three cushions and into the middle pocket.

We’ve seen countless moments of genius from The Rocket throughout his illustrious career and this was another to add to the collection.

Eurosport add that O’Sullivan’s shot raised ‘the roof inside the Crucible’.
