The combination of Ronnie and the impeccable editing skill of Cesar is an absolute joy. So very grateful to have the privilege of enjoying both.

[@GlenMacDonald]

I've seen a lot of ROS matches, but this one was impeccable. He's still at the very top of his game after all these years. So impressive.

[@John-gd4wq]

Lovely to watch! Thanks Cesar.

[@renegadealpha144]

Great editing, perfect way to watch match highlights. Well done Cesar.

[@mtranchi]

Thank you for the, as always, great editing!

[@cnrek9563]

GENIUS 😎🪄

[@kevs6402]

Ronnie the Goat. What a pleasure to watch such a gifted young man take such a beating from the greatest ever. Etched on his brain or scarred for life. LOL Only time will tell.

[@scowell]

A lot of the time you didn't have to do editing... Ronnie just did the rocket thing! Always a pleasure Cesar... the way you maintain the commentary with speeding up the action is amazing, people probably don't even realize what they're getting. Pro chess could probably benefit from this kind of speed-up as well... ain't nobody got time for it otherwise.

[@abubakarmikhail2617]

What I’ve noticed about his game now is, he doesn’t like to go into the pack early like he used to, he just likes to pick and score those loose reds and gently cannon and bring more reds into play, more like he’s challenging his break building abilities. Secondly, he doesn’t move very pacy around the table like before, now he moves kind of majestically and plays the game with finesse. And lastly he likes to position the cue ball on one side of the table for as much as he can just so he can walk less 😅

[@tomkehoe1807]

the bit about going into the pack, he started that over a decade ago, only now he has quite literally mastered break building to the highest level now. I can only faulter his long game at times. Everything else is elite levels.

[@gettingkilt]

Even his long game is elite when he's on a good day. On a bad day, not so much but still good enough to compete with most any top 48 player.

[@tonybarfridge4369]

Also he works it so he doesn't need to play left handed anymore and is very focussed and level headed

[@johnl4469]

Thanks Cesar, love what you do mate.

[@raytheron]

Ronnie the great! Thanks for the great editing, Cesar. Impeccable!

[@jackbuff_I]

That third frame is RIDICULOUS 👌

[@Antonowskyfly]

Ctellar edit Cesar! Thank you. 👍👍

[@mhallett364]

Absolutely brilliant doesn't really even begin to scratch the surface of describing Ronnie O'Sullivan's game in this match. How discouraging it must be to run up against the brick wall that is the GOAT. As the announcer alluded to making an incredibly difficult game look like child's Play.

[@McLKeith]

This was day and night better than the Pagett match. Thanks.

[@intrepidbun5002]

Godlike snooker from Ronnie. Thanks Cesar 👍

[@MrHadrian71]

Just pure class! Agreed when ROS hit's the knuckle for position it's time to pack up! Awesome Cesar thank you!

[@DrCeramicDallas]

What a talent Page is. Amazing.

[@jdmillar86]

Not many matches have centuries in 80% of frames played. Very good stuff.

[@Abdullah-is7rk]

That was such a quick match. Even if you hadn't edited it, it would still be a great watch. Nonetheless, excellent work.

[@weldabar]

Watching Ronnie when he's playing like this is a treat.

[@joshuatan8061]

I hope he can win the 8th WC...😊

[@FloydMaxwell]

I work with a keyboard, but injuries are my Achille's heel. Some high repetition activities, carried out for many hours per day, lead to serious pain and even force a break. My sympathies, Ronnie.

[@dsimon123]

I'm enjoying watching Ronnie play knowing he won't be playing forever. Nobody ever compared to this guy.

[@jamesbarry9795]

Awesome thanks for sharing

[@josephnulley6808]

Awesome Ronnie, great video

[@tahreemtahir3867]

Ronnie is now much more dangerous than ever before🥵🥵

[@danieladaniel2004]

Ronnie playing at his best is always a joy to watch! Too bad he got frustrated the day next.

[@SnookerArchive147]

Great edit! I'd love to see your take on the Higgins vs. Trump semi-final in this tournament!

[@tonybarfridge4369]

I didn't know this game was so easy. He's making it look like a pool table. He can be a real knob but you have to admire his play. Also Ben Williams so professional and quick, and good natured with it. After taking a ball out of the pocket doesn't stand there looking side to side like a goose looking for the player when behind him. One look is sufficient. Either he's there or not. If not the path is clear. Most likely the player is just waiting and not encroaching into his personal space.

[@Leakh6161]

Thanks Mr Muroya !❤❤❤ Unfortunately, he lost the next match !😢 but we all know that he just stopped playing because of stupid reasons!😢

[@edwinpeterhigginson8448]

Even for the G.O.A.T. that was peerless.

[@sunnydayrcpilot]

He is so fun to watch.

[@bryanwalkerCT7729]

Very rare to get such warm and powerful comments........ Can't improve on what's been written....... #BeingSaneInInsanePlaces

[@chrisb9242]

Blimey! O'Sullivan at his best

[@GetMeThere1]

Wow! Nice play.

[@BhopalBranding]

He's the top of the Game....

[@MuhammadRizwan-dd6of]

Great player

[@mahmoudmed8475]

the real Ronnie , good job 😊

[@waqasshoukat1720]

Bro please upload Ronnie vs Selby 2014 final

[@FloydMaxwell]

11:40 - Ronnie O'Sullivan complimented him, saying [Jackson Page] reminds him of Luca Brecel" -- was thinking the same thing.

[@shahincoco4710]

how can you NOT love ronnie !!! 🚀🚀🤟🏼🩸

[@albertvieira6635]

Ronnie O'Sullivan is a genius

[@62cripple]

👑🐐

[@amirhossein-jn7dt]

❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@richard1472]

"Watch and admire?" Watch and learn!

[@joshuatan8061]

If he keep playing like this...ROS can play till age 75..😂😂...

[@Builder99]

not if he keeps smoking sadly

[@jackbuff_I]

Talk about getting the run of the ball too though! .. when ROS is potting from distance and ALSO hitting the knuckles its time to put your cue away 😂

[@AngelWest58]

WOW

[@dunngyllite7883]

Jackson Page showed that he is no laughing stock - but when Ronnie is in the zone, nobody can stop him.

[@SinsOfLiberty786]

Blame Luca Brecel for re lighting Ronnie's fuse. After that WC loss u had a feeling this was coming

[@forget7995]

👍👍👍👍

[@americanjihad1]

Frame 2 the old lady in audience dead to the world 😅😅 07:49

[@MrHadrian71]

Ha ha Brilliant comment!

[@carterrutschmann4296]

bro. i died 🤣

[@matteomartini6448]

The best in the world Mr Sullivan 👍👍👏👏

[@tonybarfridge4369]

Poor old Page didn't get much of a go even though he played very well

[@edisonsubandi7231]

Amazing games….. old Ronnie still top form beat rising star Jackson page.

[@siwanaksane5488]

รู้สึกว่าเล่นในยุโรป รอนนี้ จะรู้สักหลาด นำหนักขาว เหลี่ยมชิ่งมุมต่างๆได้ดีกว่าในเอเชียน ผมว่าโต๊ะที่นู้นดีกว่านะ

[@prakasavigraha6104]

"3 frames, 3 centuries, and not even 1/2 an hour's play". Says it all doesn't it?

[@skygh]

Makes it look like child's play

[@boylee3673]

Wohhh... That fat man very good...,🤔

[@rizalmursyid7488]

.

[@gordonthomson6288]

We no he's the best, but there are other players, show some other games.

[@Mk_GoR]

Ronnie was eliminated in the last 16...WTF？😏😒😤😡😠🤬
