Snooker legend Ronnie O’Sullivan finds himself on the move again just before the 2026 World Snooker Championship kicks off! Ready to take on the world from Dublin, O’Sullivan is making waves with his bold travel and living setups. After a triumphant win at the inaugural John Virgo Trophy in Ireland, where he edged out John Higgins, Ronnie’s preparations for the championship look promising. Imagine jetting between Dublin and Sheffield for the biggest snooker showdown—talk about dedication!
Despite having settled in Dublin primarily for tax purposes and keeping a base in Dubai, O’Sullivan seems unfazed by all the commuting. “I’ve been feeling alright lately. It was nice to feel comfortable at the table again,” he shared, reflecting on his recent victory. His love for Ireland shines through as he reveals spending a good chunk of the year there. Ireland has secured a special spot in his heart, and the electric atmosphere at Goffs during his matches is proof enough!
For Ronnie, managing his schedule and wellbeing is crucial. The Rocket opened up about his past struggles with gruelling travel routines, saying, “It wears you down. I put a lot of importance on feeling good.” Living part-time on a canal boat and splitting time between Dubai and Dublin might sound exhausting, but it’s what keeps him in the game with his best foot forward.
As Ronnie gears up to juggle matches and journeys during the championship, fans are eagerly watching to see his mastery on the table. Will his Ireland base and refreshed spirit propel him to another epic finish? Only time will tell as the World Snooker Championship unfolds.
