Ronnie O’Sullivan has done it again, sealing his spot in the World Seniors final with a gritty 7-5 win over Robert Milkins at the Crucible! Milkins, known as the Milkman, had strong leads of 3-2, 4-3, and 5-4, but O’Sullivan’s class shone through in a tense finish.
After the match, Milkins spoke candidly about his struggles, admitting he’s “disrespected” the game. Once a rising star with a Welsh Open title under his belt, he now faces a tough road to reclaim his snooker tour card. “I need to put in the work before Q School,” Milkins confessed, acknowledging his recent defeats, including losing to top amateur Patrick Whelan.
Facing “The Rocket” O’Sullivan is always daunting, Milkins admitted, saying, “Ronnie scares the hell out of me,” revealing the psychological edge O’Sullivan has over his rivals.
Despite the victory, O’Sullivan had his own gripes about the playing conditions, which he described as less than ideal. But he and Milkins both managed to rise above, showcasing resilience and skill under pressure.
Next up for O’Sullivan is a clash against the winner of the semi-final between Craig Steadman and Joe Perry. Will he claim yet another title? Catch the final on Channel 5 on Sunday at 12.30pm to find out! 🎱✨
