Ronnie O’Sullivan vs. Jimmy White | 2019 Champion of Champions

It's the eagerly anticipated tie between Ronnie O'Sullivan vs. Jimmy White in the 2019 Champion of Champions.

I used to be like that but now I try not to get too involved although I'm always rooting for him.I was glad he won the seniors again.I would say he is easily the second most talented player to ever pick up a cue definitely the most exciting.

"jimmy 'nearly man' white"

[@andrewevansmusic3222]

"Just when he was closing in on a great victory, an easy ball eludes him," might just sum up Jimmy's career. But part of what made him so compelling was that he could pot anything BUT he could also miss anything. Maybe if he'd won one of this World Championship finals, he'd have drifted off the tour and into comfy obscurity? As it is he seems to have maintained a genuine outsider status.

[@HALFSQUASHED]

If a player ever summed up the phrase 'snatching defeat from the jaws of victory' it is probably Jimmy White.

[@ethanberry9846]

I loved watching Jimmy but he was so frustrating at times.. too much of the chancer hit and hope at the most crucial of times in matches, he has thrown so many away that he could of won if he just made the right shot choice. I think thats whats hold him back in the past by lifting the world trophy, and I feel he could of lifted it at least twice during his career if he had been more careful. He gets nervous and seems to lose his cool when his opponent steps up a gear. Brilliant player to watch though. Him and alex higgins were amazing in the 80s haha.

[@paulr6881]

I agree although most of his world finals were against the greatest players of the time(Davis and Hendry)Jimmy has won more than what people think and is in the top 10 of ranking event winners.I agree though if he won at least half of the finals he was in he would have won loads.

White 57 is no joke what he did to Ronni was epic good game and cue on the floor was best part lol 🤣

[@nimascolari1508]

Jimmy really needed a sports psychologist early on in his career. The only difference between the two is temperament. Ronny is solid mentally. Jimmy is very fragile. I remember seeing Jimmy lose to Hendry in the crucible final giving up a 6 frame lead. Jimmy's raw talent is unquestionable. Arguably better than Ronnie when it comes to cue control just lacks that killer mentality something Hendry had in abundance. The difference between the elites is not skill but mental strength focus and concentration. Somethings Jimmy wasn't consistent at.

[@dilldathrill9010]

100% best cue ball control in history but I don’t think he can think 10 shots ahead O’Sullivan.

[@steviegbcool]

he may have pulled off all the best shots in history but his consistency is atrocious even in his prime he would loose position far too often and miss too many easy shots something that Ronnie never did after the 90s. Jimmy bottled it far too often smoked, drunk, did drugs which is complete opposite of Ronnie.

Always amazed by how low jimmy cued on the cue ball his entire career So little margin for error Fantastic player Legend But man he chipped the ass of a cue ball

[@sam_the_man]

I noticed that too. But I also noticed he cued that low on the ball for pretty much every shot he hit below centre - feathering low enough to touch the table and then adjusting his cue height at the very last millisecond of his striking stroke just before the tip actually makes contact with the ball. It’s a heck of a lot of unnecessary movement on the cue as he’s striking which could be a reason why he randomly misses what professionals would consider to be easy pots every now and then? Makes you wonder.
