Is Ronnie O'Sullivan playing at the World Snooker Championship 2025?
SunSport exclusively revealed earlier this month that is yet to decide whether or not he will compete at the World Championship this year.
The seven-time Crucible winner, who has featured in the iconic competition every year since 1993, has pulled out of FIVE tournaments in 2025, which has sparked doubt over his attendance in Sheffield.
Speaking exclusively to SunSport at the start of April, O'Sullivan said: “I’ll make a decision when I feel like I’m ready to make a decision. That will be it.
“I know I have nothing to prove. But I was getting to the point where I was scared to even go near a table.
“Not even the match table, just a practice table. And that has been going on for a long time.
“I tried to play through it. I tried and I tried and I tried. I was getting no enjoyment out of it.
“Even that season when I won five tournaments, it was just hard. I couldn’t keep going on struggling.
“At some point you’ve got to try and enjoy the game. I can only enjoy it if I’m playing half decent.”;
Since the interview, O'Sullivan has been seen at the table during his trip to his snooker academy in Saudi Arabia.
Footage showed that Rocket hasn't lost his touch, with him making a stunning 147 clearance for all to see.
