Betting on the Snooker World Championship

The Players in Form

Ronnie O'Sullivan has to be the player to keep an eye on out of all the players in form. Ronnie is looking his typical lethargic self and does not seem bothered whether he goes on to win the tournament or goes out in his next game. The fact he seems like this makes it all the more remarkable that he can build breaks and win frames so easily. Alex Higgins would be proud as he looks down from above.
