The Rocket is back on top
Ronnie “The Rocket” O'Sullivan claimed his third world title yesterday at the Crucible by winning Ali Carter 18-8. The 32-year-old snooker genius wasn’t pleased with his performance (managed to score only one century as opposed to five in the semi-final against Steven Hendry and also his opening game’s 147 maximum). This win also brought him once again at the top of the world ranking.
Ronnie is the record holder on number of maximums achieved (9) and is also responsible for the 5 fastest maximums (justifying his nickname “The Rocket”). As a tribute to the Rocket, here’s his first maximum from all the way back in 1997, which also happens to be the fastest one ever achieved (in just 5 minutes and 20 seconds).
