In a recent interview with Eurosport’s Rachel Casey, snooker legend Ronnie O’Sullivan shared his desire to unlock the secret to consistency in his game. Despite his numerous victories in recent seasons, O’Sullivan remains focused on improving his performance and achieving greater consistency. The four-time world champion acknowledges that he has the ability to play at an exceptional level, but he wants to be able to access that level more frequently throughout matches.
O’Sullivan has been working closely with sports psychiatrist Steve Peters to help him maintain his mental and physical fitness. The partnership with Peters is aimed at helping O’Sullivan find balance between bursts of exceptional play and sustained performance throughout a game. The 48-year-old player recognizes the importance of finding a consistent approach to his game, and he is determined to hit the ball solidly and maintain a high level of play throughout matches.
While O’Sullivan is often considered one of the greatest snooker players of all time, he is not focused on achieving perfection in his game. Instead, he aims to play consistently well and enjoy the game. His goal is to elevate his game to new heights as he competes in the World Championship, which gets underway this week. With Peters by his side, O’Sullivan is confident that he will be able to find the “turbo button” that will help him perform at a consistently high level throughout matches.
