Played pool and snooker all my life. Seen them all. No one in history has ever been better with a cue in his hands than O’Sullivan. I’d give a year of my life to be able to shoot like him for a week.

O'Sullivan has played 1,257 matches and averages 0.79 centuries per match - the best average of anyone who has played more than one match.
China's Ding Junhui has the second best average at 0.64 centuries per match, followed by Neil Robertson with 0.63. The Australian former world champion, beaten by O'Sullivan in Sunday's final, is the only player to make 100 centuries in a single season - 103 in 2013-14.
Hendry is next on the list at 0.61 and Englishman Judd Trump is at 0.6.
O'Sullivan has played 10,957 frames since turning professional, winning 9.05% of them with a century break. But fellow Englishman and current Masters champion Judd Trump is not far behind, winning 9.01% of his frames with a ton.
Hendry said: "Judd Trump is a lot younger than Ronnie and is almost on 600 centuries, but Ronnie will set records that will be very difficult to overcome.
"There are lots more tournaments to play in so more opportunities to make those century breaks.
"Ronnie will not be the only one to reach 1,000 centuries, but it will take the others like Trump longer to get there."

Personally, I think both Robertson and Trump will get to 1000, but I doubt if they surpass Ronnie’s final tally. He’s been pro now for close to 30 years and is still winning titles - can’t see the Rocket slowing down anytime soon......
