⭐ Editor's Pick
It’s important to note that Ronnie is a very different player compared to Judd. He always takes the initiative, while the world number one can be vulnerable to momentum swings. Noppon won’t be allowed to pull off the same trick twice, and “The Rocket” appears to be in top form, as evidenced by his performance in the opening round. Once again: if O’Sullivan plays to his full potential, his opponent simply won’t have a chance to get into the match. This doesn’t look like a contest that will go the distance. The recommended bet here is Ronnie O’Sullivan to win with a -2.5 frame handicap.No comments
