Snooker star Dan Wells has expressed his sadness at comments made about him by Ronnie O’Sullivan.
During Eurosport’s coverage of last week’s Welsh Open, 'The Rocket' claimed the 34-year-old "was not good enough" to get a main tour card and should stay a part-time player. Wells took exception to the remarks and suggested the sport's top ranked player "should engage his brain a bit more and think about other people".
"I’m a bit disappointed that I have to be talking about that now," Wells told The Metro. "I’ve come off the back of a few decent results and I’d rather be talking about that, but if I’m asked for an opinion, I’ll give it. I think there was a better way of saying what he said. If that’s his opinion then he’s entitled to it, but the way it came across was as a bit of a personal attack. It’s not the first time it’s happened, not to me but to other players.
