\"\"The most popular snooker player, seven times world champion, many years at the top of the world ranking. British snooker player Ronnie O’Sullivan had it all in his 24-year career. Still, it looks like he’ll be retiring soon.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Details: the 48-year-old Briton has issued a powerful criticism of himself after his first-round exit in the English Open, saying he’s not the same as he used to be and will have to forget about world domination.<\/p>\n

Quote, \u2018I’m absolutely useless, that’s why I lost. Forget about the world championship. To be honest I don’t even care, if I’m going to play rubbish I might as well play left handed. Play left-handed and enjoy it but be useless, or play right-handed and be useless and not enjoy it.\u2019<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’m terrible, it’s embarrassing. I’m conceding so many balls. I’ve been conceding goals for the last four or five years, but every now, and then I concede a few less, maybe and get a couple of results. Even in the tournaments I’ve won, people have missed crazy opportunities to beat me,\u2019 O`Sullivan told The Sun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
