Ronnie O'Sullivan has revealed he almost missed a match due to going out for a kebab, after the Rocket addressed recent comments made by Ding Junhui. Ding seemingly took a dig at O'Sullivan when discussing snooker's 'roll-on, roll-off' system at tournaments.
Many players have been quick to criticise, including Ding who also believes O'Sullivan receives special treatment with the world No. 1 usually given an allotted time. He said: "It’s [roll-on, roll-off] been going on for many years so maybe people are OK with it, but I prefer having a match at a certain time.
"Players should be able to get ready for the match, know what time we play, then we play our best. We’re not just waiting to see when we play, it’s like a circus. For the fans as well, they want to know when their player is playing, not wait four, five hours and see them at 11pm.
