Snooker star Matthew Salt is set to be investigated by the World Snooker Tour after he exploded at an autistic fan and called him a ‘mong’ and a ‘pervert’ in a startling series of direct messages on social media.
The World No. 21 also snapped at six-time world champion Ronnie O’Sullivan, calling the 46-year-old a ‘c*** of a human’ in the disgusting outburst. Selt was unaware of the fan’s autism when he replied to the messages.
The incident came about after a fan replied to Selt’s Instagram story, which showed O’Sullivan making an inappropriate gesture that was caught on camera after missing the pot on black during his World Championship first round win over David Gilbert.
