I agree. But that’s O’Sullivans shortcoming as a pro player. Concentration/professionalism.If each at their best, O'Sullivan by a good distance.
However he is also the more likely to be off his game, or disinterested, or distracted or simply in a bad mood. I can't ever recall Hendry losing his cool or being anything less than laser-focused.
Therefore it would probably be a lot closer than many people might think.
Not sure it’s farcical?Is this a serious thread?
Ronnie O'Sullivan has 23 triple crowns in a much tougher era.
Farcical to even create this 'debate'
Sorry but I think it's a ridiculous debate.Not sure it’s farcical?
Both won 7 world championships.
Id go Ronnie too but SH had some qualities that Ronnie doesn’t.
