"I'm sure we're going to be seeing a lot of this young man in the next few years to come" Um, you have no idea how much
Are you being sarcastic
To be fair he had a big idea how much. It was obvious, winning a ranking title, at 17, that he was going to be a legend. The only surprise was that he didn’t dominate ala Hendry in the next few years and for a long time didn’t live up to his potential.
Next 30 years lol
only 38 major guyzer and recently 7th world titol as the guy he beat up here
Yes ...35 years of pure greatness 21 triple crown title 7 world championship 7 masters 7 UK championship . The most decorated player to ever grace the cue of snooker Ladies and gents .... Please enjoy the last few years of the greatest snooker player Ronnie O'Sullivan
a game, where the greatest of his time lost against the greatest of ALL time ...
Youngest UK champion and oldest World champion, the best at any age.
2022 and he is still playing and in the final at the Crucible. What a player.
Twa legends 🎯💥 🏴🗝 👀 🏆 .
2023 and hes not only the youngest player to win this comp, now hes the oldest
The snooker 🐐
And remember the most other players can not play on this level after 20-30 years career👍😄👌
Uderstatement by commentators. Ronnie becomes the greatest of all time.
Certainly is now with his 7th world title and looking strong as ever.
@@vangledosh 7 world titles out of 31 world championship appearances is not that impressive
@@Paul-sl9zmokay
@@Paul-sl9zm oh dear Paul.
@@russellpeacock2853 It took Ronnie an astonishing 31 years....to win 7 world titles 😄
I love how the subtitles misspeled "Ronnie O'Sullivan to break" for "Ronnie O'Sullivan the great"
“We’re going to be seeing more of this lad in the next few years…” If you only knew… 30 years later and he’s won it again! 8 times. An incredible player, snooker will miss him when he decides he’s had enough.
And he even had his exceptionally enthusiastic fans back then already!!
Props to the ref too. What a professional. Doesn't skip a beat, or faff about too much eg. 2:20 He handles it all very well even with Ronnie's speed.
Love watching 👀 a true champion at work. Legend!!!
Ronnie Genius full stop. The Greatest Ever
Какие молоденькие и симпатичные! И талантливые, и харизматичные. Сейчас не вижу подобных среди молодых снукеристов.
🚀🚀 Greatest Ever ~ Fact ✍️ 😉
More ranking titles than anyone more triple crowns than anyone and more centuries than anyone more masters than anyone more uk titles than anyone more 147 than anyone only record he doesn't have is the most world titles and he's not the best you must be joking if you think otherwise.. I bet if you asked all the tour the best player ever 99% of them would say ronnie without a doubt
@Wayne Anthony Holmes 😂😂😂😂😂 you’re embarrassing yourself mate. He’s the greatest player to ever pick up a cue and there will never be anyone like him again.
@Wayne Anthony Holmes all you've gone on about is the crucible and time he did it whats time matter the tour is miles better than it was back then. doesnt really matter how long it takes or what age you win your first .. ronnie won the UK championship at 17 youngest player ever to win a triple crown event and it was hendry he beat..and ronnie 30 years as pro anyway and hendry 33 Ronnie's win percentage 74.78% hendrys 68.59% frames won ronnie 61% hendry 58.6% maximums 15 ronnie 11 hendry over 1100 centuries ronnie hendry 774 .. they played each other 51 times with out the Premier league draws and ronnie won 30 to hendrys 21... ronnie as most centuries at crucible 184 hendry 127 and hollds every record in all other triple crown events so he's 1 behind with world titles.. wow 👏 .. and am sure if you look and youtube ronnie as said since that he is the best and every snooker player says he's the best player I've seen 99% of them you look that up on KZhead lol 😆..anyways leave ya to state your next story about hendry lol.
@Wayne Anthony Holmes well done mate 👏 even hendry calls ronnie the best ever and higgins and William and selby and white robertson trump Murphy all the commentators .. and so on but yeah all the top players say it and say he's the hardest ever apponent you know them that play the game as a career.. but who knows you might know better than them lol.
@Wayne Anthony Holmes i don't care if he washed his car and his windows and went round d with the hoover for him he's still better.🤣
Now he won again. What a Legend!
Left and right hand Unbelievable for 17 years old became the Greatest 🤗
Ronnie o, Sullivan amazing👍👍👍👍👍
Ronnie the rocket is a real champion 👏
Thank you very much for this video.
Beginning of a new era 🔥 Ronnie 🐐
Hardly! Hendry went on to win 3 more world titles before Ronnie won his first!
@@da_great_mogul yep hendry won 3 more world titles, but ronnie was consistent in his own , other than those issues which he faced, he was consistently getting into QF, SF.
@@hafizmuqeem2766 hardly the start of a new era then! Ronnie only ever won back to back titles once, in 2012 & 2013. He never had an era of domination but more a career of consistency that started here in 1994 and continues almost 30 years on today.
@@da_great_mogul could argue that the competition in o’Sullivan’s era was levels deeper and more skilled then hendrys era
@@royalty4958 so why did Hendry win in '95, '96, '99 and beat Ronnie in the semi finals in '99 & '02? Think about it, in '02, Ronnie was a defending champion and was 26 years old, Hendry 33! Every era can say the same thing; the previous era was weaker. We can't judge Hendry for when was born, surely?
What a Player he is World Number 1 7 world titles looking for his 8th what a player he is Winning his first world championship to show his dad who was in prison his dad said go and win some more show them your the best winning 7 world titles still playing at top level unreal. Best ever in the world of Snooker. One thing for sure we will never forget When Ronnie retires it's a pleasure to watch. 147 5 mins 20 seconds amazing
30 years later he is still doing the business on a snooker table.
Simply a genius.
To me he never was a rocket, he is even more like a missile. The best
@Wayne Anthony Holmes Calling Judd Trump "the fraud" when he is "the fraud" himself... Unacceptable!
Same technology.
Total legend..
I think this lad has a future in the sport.
Great to see John Spencer. 😊🇫🇷
the transition from the start of the frame and to the award ceremony was fast
Always Legend !
Oh! Ronnie 💙 what a handsome looking young man you are . and a fantastic snooker player.
You knew when was 14yo winning junior pot black how good he was going to be. The greatest player ever.
Dois jogadores fantásticos!!
He surely was a precocious young boy at 17 back then!
30 years later ……The youngest UK championship winner is now the oldest UK championship winner. What an achievement!!! Possibly never to be surpassed ever. He would remain the best to have picked up the snooker cue.
This is the game I think i be came a Ronnie O'Sullivan fan he just blue me away with his snooker I could see he played a different game to anyone else
I prophecy that he will do quite well in the future
And he won it against a prime Stephen Hendry
And this year ,hopefully the GOAT can do the treble
Because all opponents have either personal problems (Selby) or are in bad form (Robertson,Brecel) will it probably happen! Although O'Sullivan isn't playing so well like all pretend he would do. But all O'Sullivan hardcore fans will pretend that he is playing his best Snooker ever!!😂😂😂 That's when Snooker is dying if an 48 year old well past his prime winning all 3 triple crown titles in a single season!!!
Wow i love it
Era frumușel !!
Pretty good win for a 17-year-old over Hendry... I think he might go far in the game! 😁
2022 nd he is ur world snooker champion
Commentators: John Virgo & Ray Edmonds Referee: John Williams
Ronnie the best. Najlepszy
The goat teaching the other goat
Bravissimo
Лучшие!!!!!!
THE NUMBER 1 ¡
The Kid becomes the GOAT!
His first ranking title was a triple crown.
Imagine being that good at what you do at the age of 17 to get a £70k payday in 1993 🤯
I have a feeling this young lad will have decent snooker career. I predict he will win at least 3 World Titles.
😂😂
And the rest is history
This lad looks promising, he could become a world champion in the future!
A big amont of money for 17 years old....Verry nice ...
Slowly become the O'Sullivan channel this
Good 👍
@Wayne Anthony Holmes John Higgins is still one of the best in the world, if they played that final again today the score could easily be reversed. Ronnie is box office and by far the most gifted player to pick up a cue
@Wayne Anthony Holmes Ronnie will win if the moneys worth it m8
@Wayne Anthony Holmes in Ronnies exact words “I don’t really see myself as a snooker player any more. It’s counter-productive in many ways. Financially and time-wise, it doesn’t make sense. But I still want it in my life, if only for fun purposes” he proved him self time ago and doesn’t take it serious you tool, he still plays tournaments and championships cus there’s money in it, he even admitted if he had to stop snooker or his businesses he’d pick snooker to go
@Wayne Anthony Holmes course judd trump is better you clown, all judd has is snooker
Imagine what Ronnie would have accomplished if he hadn't had the substances issues and mental health problems. Frightening to consider, but he'd probably have at least 3 more world championships and another 12 ranking titles. There were months and months where he didn't even pick up a cue or consider practicing. So many missed tournaments he elected to pass up. What a shame.
What substance did he abuse? I didn’t know about this
substance issues??? he doesnt even drink.
@@jamiew1664 google Ronnie O’Sullivan substance abuse mate told the news his story
I don't wish bad on people's lives but I think if he hadn't had the bad perhaps he would have been more content with what he had and retired earlier. I'm not big on what if because it could actually go the other way.
Back in the days when he sat on the right side - hardly remember him sitting there at all! :-D
🐐
And the rest is History
Молодые)
This was Hendry in his prime too which makes it even more of an accomplishment!
First comment and first fan
My god a cheque for £70,000 at that age back then No wonder he can decide to throw £10,000 down the toilet and refuse to make 147s because the prize money isn't good enough...
Henry looks the same age as Ronnie here.
Ronnie at 17 looked like Paul McCarthy at 17. Talents are often similar.
I've got a friend called Paul McCarthy - do you know him??
What's extraordinarily crazy is that O'Sullivan only won 7 world titles. He would have won every year, based on skill, but for his mental issues
To think all the rocket ha done and his career could have been even better.
So they did not interviewed players in that time? Disappointment.
If this kid works hard, he could end up being pretty good. I doubt that there are ten men in all of Preston who could beat him.
Ronnie O'Sullivan loves snooker back then. Too bad he hates the sport nowadays!
It’s like a Tuberculosis surgery meeting.
И ещё Стив Девис!!!
Little Rocket
LEDGEND & LEDGENDRY : …./……. both 🏴 💥 🎯 .
xintong is the next ronnie
Pfft!
What a player he turned out to be,now he don't care about it ,in my eye he the best in the business, time to retire
Lol retire? He just won another world championship. :D
Is Ronnie as big or bigger than the Beatles in the UK ? Just asking.
Nobody is bigger than the Beatles anywhere.
Ronnie looked older at 17 than he does at 40 😄
He surely didn't play much worse than he is playing now...
Already the same commentator!!
Just think his old man was caged a year for life a year before.
Ronnie innocent Now Ronnie Egoist
"As we ask him to leave the arena..." Absolutely pathetic stuff from the compere....
O Palmeiras não tem Mundial.
Not what he used to be now.
