Ronnie - Patience Was My Virtue

www.worldsnooker.com

Ronnie O'Sullivan insisted that patience and tough matchplay skills were his greatest allies in a "very satisfying" victory in the Roewe Shanghai Masters final.

The Rocket beat Liang Wenbo 10-5 to win his third ranking title in China and 22nd overall, and though he made eight breaks over 50 during the match, he also had to stay calm and wait for scoring opportunities.

"It was a tough match, I struggled with my technique and I wasn’t hitting the ball sweetly. In spells I played ok but for most of it I had to battle to get through," said the 33-year-old from Chigwell, who won the China Open in 1999 and 2000. "I would have loved to entertain and play open snooker as that was the kind of game I was expecting. But it got slow and there were some drawn out frames so it was hard to build any momentum.

"I was hanging on, trying to stay in there and not give anything away, and wait for some form to come along. I was only able to play flamboyant snooker in two or three frames. The rest of it was steady, hard match snooker and I needed patience.

"Liang pots so many difficult balls, and that's hard to play against. You think you’ve got him in trouble and you’ll get back to the table, then he’s pots a long ball and you have to stay in your seat, so you can get frustrated. His potting ability is so good, that wherever you leave the white, you don't know if it's safe. He's improved a lot since I played him at the Crucible last year.

"So I'm happy to have got through it, won the tournament and got my season off to a good start. It’s very satisfying to get a victory, especially here in China where snooker is so popular. It’s a good feeling.”

Left-hander Liang, the 22-year-old who had never previously been beyond the quarter-finals of a ranking event, said: "In the first session I played well and put Ronnie under some pressure, but it was hard to keep doing that in the second session. I need more experience in finals like this."

Comment by Janie Watkins at http://snookerscene.blogspot.com

I've just had a good chat with 110sport who wish to answer some of the queries that have been raised.

1. There will be commentators. Terry Griffiths will be one of them, Rob Walker another and they're keeping a couple of surprises up their sleeve for you.

2. They will go on air 15 minutes before the start of play and a sesion broadcast will include interviews with players, referees etc.

3. They will have roving cameras to monitor other tables and be able to bring good breaks etc from other tables.

4. It will be satellite upload technology and there will be a total of 8 cameras in use around the venue. the production team is headed up by senior staff previously with Sky Sports and Setanta and the pictures will be full tv quality.

5. Initially the price is set at £2.99 a session. If you're unable to watch live there will be a "watch again option" on a delay, at a cheaper rate. If the uptake is good then prices will be reviewed accordingly and packages like day, event, and season tickets introduced.

6. There will also be other events being covered, that 110 are involved with or event managing themselves.

7. Perhaps the most important is that it is available worldwide. China will have its own separate mirror feeds and everyone else will pick up the feed from the UK and as long as you've got a decent internet connection you should have no problem accessing the broadcasts.

8. The team is coming into Pontin's tomorrow to get everything set up.

So all in all it sounds pretty exciting to me and it's long overdue.
Roll on Monday morning, let's watch some snooker!
