The kiss on Jimmy's cheek and the intimate hug/private chat with Judd... this is what real men who have real emotions (regardless if they show it during matches) and have the utmost respect for someone else, do. Incredible accomplishment, incredible career, incredible personality.

Amazing interview! Thanks to Eurosport for sharing this. I started watching snooker about seven years ago after my husband showed me Ronnie's fastest 147 and I have been a massive fan of Ronnie's since. I live in a very isolated little town in Northern Ontario where there's virtually nothing to do and I can't tell you how much I look forward to watching snooker. I hope Ronnie will continue to play for awhile, however if he doesn't his fans can't ask for anything else from him, he has given us so much. Thanks Ronnie!

[@Zoroaster1996]

What sort of coverage do you get there?

[@darrellchristie643]

Hi Donna. I too lived in a tiny little town in northern Ontario when I was a teen. My family moved from the NWT to ON. This little tiny blip of a village was like every other small Canadian town / village back in the day: there was the outdoor hockey/skating/broom-ball rink, and a curling club with 3 sheets of natural ice. What made this little place different from most others was that there was a pool room ... with 8 pool tables and 4 snooker tables. I was told by my parents to "not go in there" as pool rooms had bad reps - but being the (mostly) typical 13 year old boy that I was, I opened the door to the place, and fell in love with snooker right then. It was 30 cents/hour to play, with a 5 cent penalty for jumping any ball off the tables (which were gorgeous), and I started racking / scoring for pennies a game so I could watch and learn. I can still remember learning to "lag" for break, and looking down that long. long green. I have loved snooker ever since, and have played whenever I could. Thanks for making me remember those early snooker times in my life.

I have been supporting Ronnie since he arrived 25 years ago and never had the chance to follow Trump well but after seeing Judd supporting Ronnie during the altercation with referee and during the cue ball incident when the referee was placing the cue ball wrong, I started to love Judd's honesty and sportsmanship and now I absolutely love Judd. I hope Ronnie gets his 8th title and Judd dominates the snooker after Ronnie cuz he absolutely deserves it. Ronnie is without a doubt the GOAT of GOATs but what a fantastic human being Judd is. Total respect!

[@electriclightlynnetrex6346]

That was the best and most emotional moment I've ever seen in snooker. Judd and Ronnie have always had total respect for each other but never shown it until this moment.

Lovely words from Ronnie about Jimmy. This is a special moment in the history of Snooker. Snooker dose not get the respect it deserves. It’s an incredibly hard game to master, in fact like golf you never do. Ronnie, for my money, is the most naturally talented individual sportsman ever. When he is playing at the top of his game it’s not just perfection, it’s artistry in motion. A legend is a much over used term, but in Ronnie’s case, it’s apt. A legend and a phenomenal sportsman.

So wonderful to see him so emotional, which gave a great insight into how hard it is to concentrate and sustain a physical effort for around 110 frames of snooker in the tournament. He's the ONLY player that I actually watch re runs of his previous rounds instead of live matches of other players. He's so graceful, just beautiful to watch. I loved how his emotion of achieving the 7 was released at the end, the way he threw his right arm towards Judd at the end, slumped with fatigue and embraced for ages, hiding his tears and probably bigging Judd up. A true great 👍.

Maguire 13-5... Higgins 17-10...Trump 18-13 with the pressure of equalling Hendry record at 46 years and 5 months old and become the oldest World Champion in Snooker History is sensational and for once and for all put to bed the greatest debate until maybe 25-30 years from now someone else goes on to challenge his greatness.

Great Irish family and a great Irish man 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮 you were brilliant

[@adambeaniesmith5645]

Brilliant Ronnie boy. Don’t know what he said too Judd but I would think he told him how hard he worked just to get to the final and beat him. Trains and lives like a boxer. Mayweather esq performance. Hard work and dedication, Ronnie worked his arse off for this

[@adambeaniesmith5645]

@Bahar what?

[@pjtyra2106]

It’s none of our business and should be left between them.

[@pjtyra2106]

@Bahar I’d love to hear what those two gentleman would say to you if you asked them lol of course I want to know too, but at the same time. It’s none of ou… my business.

[@pjtyra2106]

@Bahar good luck, pal.

[@pjtyra2106]

@Bahar love you too, Bahar Blast 😘

Ronnie is loved by many. He has earned it.

[@FishnChips136]

People seem to be surprised by Ronnie's emotional side. I'm sure that Ronnie being a competitor wants to win every frame in every match but, I learned something about him not long ago in an interview. He was pushing for Pro Snooker to reimburse the costs for the younger players on the tour. His thought was for the life of professional snooker. These younger players are struggling to place high enough in tournament play to make expenses and without sponsors to help " break even" then many would be forced to give up the game. He felt as if a portion of the tournament profits would be well spent to help these young players, the future of the sport.

The respect that Jimmy and Ronnie show each other is special
