Ronnie O’Sullivan did not defend his title in the Champion of Champions tournament. Will he return at UK Championship?
In last year’s Champion of Champions final, O’Sullivan defeated Judd Trump. Before the start of this year’s edition of the event, he was surprisingly eliminated from the International Championship tournament held in Tianjin. His defeat in the semi-finals was the Chinese Zhang Anda, who later won the entire event. Is that why he wasn’t on Champion of Champions? O’Sullivan gave the reason. The leader of the world snooker rankings withdrew from the event in Bolton, wanting to take care of his mental and physical health.
It is possible that he will return during the UK Championship tournament, which will start in York on November 26.
