'Amateur' O'Sullivan: I'm not good enough

27th April 2011
www.worldsnooker.com

Ronnie O'Sullivan does not believe he is good enough to compete for snooker titles any more.

O'Sullivan described his performance as 'amateur' as he let an 8-5 lead slip and lost 13-10 to John Higgins in a quarter-final at the Betfred.com World Snooker Championship.

Before this event, O'Sullivan had been seeing sports psychiatrist Steve Peters in a bid to improve mentally and return to a winning fashion.

O'Sullivan had not won a match in a ranking tournament since September before he secured wins over Dominic Dale and Shaun Murphy at the Crucible but was still not happy with his form.

"It's no secret that I've been to see someone and he has given me a different way of looking at things," said O'Sullivan. "It was still substandard snooker but I was not smashing myself to pieces.

"I felt like I wanted to but I've worked on a couple of things which have made me not get too involved and I'm just trying to be objective about it.

"I beat Dominic Dale and played well, it wasn't a great match against Shaun Murphy and the standard wasn't great in that match as I dragged John down to my level.

"You can be as positive as you like but the game is about potting balls and I made far too many elementary mistakes, which is unforgivable at this level and at amateur level.

"I had a lot of chances - more than I expected - I just wasn't able to do anything. I can't just sit here (in the press conference) and say I deserved to win because I don't think I did.

"It is a work in progress but if it means feeling great and still playing like that then that won't be good enough for me.

"I've won world titles and thought 'it's not doing it for me' so there's been a shift in how I feel and I can manage it better.

"I need to play to a certain standard which I've not played at for a long time. When I first said I would retire I meant it but snooker is all I know.

"I've been doing it for a long time and it's hard but I'm allowing myself time to find a bit of form.

"But that standard is not going to win titles and that's what I want to do."

O'Sullivan insisted he still enjoyed playing at the Crucible, but finds it hard to accept he cannot replicate the form that took him to 22 ranking titles, including three World Championships.

"I wish you could see me in practice as I'm like that every day," added O'Sullivan.

"It's not like Hendry who says he's playing well in practice but not in matches, I'm playing poorer in practice and better in matches but I'm not coming to tournaments with a lot of confidence and it's difficult to handle.

"I just feel like I've got no game and no shots. As a top sportsman who is playing this game there are certain things that are unforgiveable.

"Whether I can put it right, I don't know, I've been trying for years.

"I'm in a better place and feel better about life and it's not the playing I have a problem with, it's the bits in between, the thinking and pondering about playing.

"If I can feel better about playing badly then I might hang around. It's hard to accept but I'm doing so."

Rejuvenated Ronnie Downs Dale

www.worldsnooker.com
19th April 2011

Ronnie O'Sullivan was in good shape on and off the table as he stormed to a 10-2 victory over Dominic Dale in the first round of the Betfred.com World Championship.

The three-times World Champion built a 7-2 lead in the first session yesterday with breaks of 78, 96, 113 and 73. And he continued in the same vein today with 115, 96 and 100 to add the three frames he needed. The Rocket now faces Shaun Murphy in what looks the pick of the second round matches.

Chigwell's 35-year-old O'Sullivan has struggled for form and motivation for most of this season and, before today, had not won a ranking event match since September's 12BET.com World Open.

He even called World Snooker to pull out of snooker's biggest event 12 days ago - only to change his mind the next day before he had put it in writing.

But sessions with mind guru Dr Steve Peters seem to have worked as the World No 10 showed a positive attitude during and after the match.

"I enjoyed that as much as I did the first time I played at the Crucible," said O'Sullivan. "I didn't want it to end, I wanted to keep playing. I've never felt like that before. Even when I was 16-4 up on Stephen Hendry in the semi-finals here, I had doubts that I could get over the line.

"The most important thing for me is to want to be out there. It doesn't matter if I win or lose, that's just part of sport. I love the game but I have suffered with it. I've tried coaches and psychologists to help me keep going, and this is the last throw of the dice. It doesn't mean I'm going to win the tournament and I've got nothing to prove, I just want to try to play for as long as I can.

"I won't disclose what (the psychology sessions) are about. It won't make me a better snooker player but hopefully it will allow me to feel 99 per cent as good as the other players feel, so I'm on a level playing field."

As for his tough draw, which could see him play John Higgins in the quarter-finals, O'Sullivan added: "I don't care because I've never seen a player I couldn't beat. I'm looking forward to the next match and even if I lose I'll be back. If I keep feeling like I did today, then I could win more world titles."

O'Sullivan to seek help from sports shrink

www.espn.co.uk
April 13, 2011

Ronnie O'Sullivan is set to visit a leading sports psychiatrist, having revealed he came close to withdrawing from the World Championship.

O'Sullivan has had a torrid time this season and will head to the Crucible this weekend having lost his last four first-round matches. He has spoken about retirement and came close to pressing ahead with his plans when informing officials he did not want to play at the World Championship.

He was given the weekend to mull over his decision and was ultimately persuaded to change his mind. And with the fire still burning, he will visit Dr Steve Peters - the man who helped Britain's cyclists to their medal haul at the Beijing Olympcis - in a bid to get back on track.

"Last week I put in a verbal withdrawal to World Snooker and told them I wasn't going to play in Sheffield," O'Sullivan said. "That's when it really hit me that this could be it, for five or 10 minutes my heart was pounding.

"I said if it's easier to say I'm retiring then say that. They said that's fine, but we'll give you the weekend to think about it. On Monday they called back, and talked me back into it."

O'Sullivan begins his World Championship challenge against Dominic Dale and he will head into the game on the back of a meeting with Dr Peters.

"I am about to go and see the man who worked with the GB Olympic cycling team later this week," O'Sullivan said. "He has a very good reputation. I'll be honest with him, I'm not sure what he can do to help me - but there is that small chance that he can.

"My problem is not that I can't get over the winning line, or that I don't believe I am good enough. I can win and I know if I'm playing well I beat all bar a couple.

"But a friend said to me in China you should see this bloke. I will try anything that might work. It just sounds too good to be true if after all these years someone makes it all come back, and I start enjoying it again and finding all my shots."
