Neil Robertson has called for a ban on the chalk used by Ronnie O’Sullivan during the World Snooker Championship, claiming that “all the players hate it” and suggesting it causes problems on the baize.
O’Sullivan’s hopes of a record eighth world title at the Crucible were ended by old rival John Higgins in a 13-12 thriller on Tuesday, with Robertson beating Chris Wakelin in the evening session to set up a meeting with the Scot.
