Masters 2010 1st round discussion..

[Odrl]

Interesting discussion about who's best is the best at the moment...

O'Sullivan and Higgins have pretty much traded the title of best player in the world between them since about 2004. I'd say in January of 2010, Higgins is capable of playing the best snooker out of any player, and Robertson and O'Sullivan are both in the top4. But it can all turn around quickly.

I'm glad that I had added that almost word in my previous post above

[noel]

This match has had EVERYTHING.

Whoever wins this will be my favourite to go all the way [ if they don't beat each other up too severly ].

Interesting, isn't it? Robertson is hitting almost everything in and Ronnie missing them all, but the match is still 3-3..

Indeed...when he demolished Hendry in 2008.
EDIT : Winning 12 frames in a row.....

I'm not at the telly at the moment, but if there's no purple cue, well, then that's stupid. Why to tell in interviews that you'll play with purple cue if you don't.

It can't be called promotion...

Yeah, that's what I do not exactly get as well.
Maybe the promotion deal was called-off the last minute?


And he should seriously stop attacking ANY long balls now. Or not now, he should of stopped some 6 frames earlier

[visionaire]

When was the last time when he was on 100%?

Also remarkable were the group matches in the 2006 GP.

Both were great performances, shame the latter had to be a first-to-five..

about one frame ago.

Except the matches when Ronnie is playing his 100% game....in those matches nobody can beat him.

Excellent response from O'Sullivan now. It could be a great second part of the match.

[spike]

Scintillating Snooker from both players!

[attilahun]

Just goes to show, when Robertson is playing his 100% game, he can beat Ronnie quite easily.

I have to disagree with you. That was years ago, and past merits has no bearing on the Ronnie of today. His long game isn't there anymore, against the young top players he's fighting an uphill battle these days.

I got your point, but when I mentioned about his best, I meant his best back in the past, not at the present time Of course, he is beatable today, now that his game has declined a bit, but in his teenage years, it was tough
