Ronnie O’Sullivan names ‘the greatest place on earth’ with snooker legend saying ‘it’s like you’re in another world’
RONNIE O’SULLIVAN has opened up on his favourite place in the world.
The snooker legend this week picked up his residency of a new city.
He has been very critical of the legendary venue the Crucible in Sheffield in recent years, calling for more tournaments to be held in the likes of China and Saudi Arabia.
And the Rocket has called on everybody to visit China if they can.
He told a World Snooker Tour interview: “I always tell people you have to come to China. For me, it’s the greatest place on Earth.
“I would just recommend anybody to just come to China. It blows me away. Every city I come to in China … it’s like you’re in another world.
“It’s the best place in the world. There is no other place like China. Every city just has something amazing about it and Nanjing has a lot of history.”
O’Sullivan has just received his Hong Kong residency and is now playing in Nanjing for the International Championship.
And he added that he would like to have the technique of some of his Chinese counterparts.
He commented: “I wish I had their game, you know. I just have a bit of nous, I’m a bit street wise, you know, it gets me through, it’s got me through most of my career.

“But I’d love to have probably another 80 other players’ technique and the way they pot balls – they’re unbelievable, I can’t pot like them. I don’t have the power that they have.
“If I had some of their technique and correction, I could probably go unbeaten for the whole of my life.”
