Ronnie O'Sullivan will refuse any attempts to make his 16th professional 147 break - as a maximum is only worthwhile for a £50,000 prize.
The Rocket is not tempted to pursue another 147 break at this year's UK Championship with the £15,000 high break prize on offer in York seemingly not enough to risk the magical maximum. World no.1 O'Sullivan holds the record of most competitive 147s and recently claimed they were 'easy' to make.
But O'Sullivan has not achieved such perfection on the baize since 2018 and was caught up in a sportsmanship storm last week after failing to acknowledge rival Judd Trump's 147 during his victory at the prestigious Champion of Champions in Bolton.
