Ding, ironically snooker’s biggest earner from huge sponsorship deals in China, took something of a pot shot back at O’Sullivan.

He said: “I heard someone offered Ronnie £61,000 if he made one – but it is not about the money for me. It is about history, records and making 147 breaks.”

Ronnie was in excellent form all week. I was a little worried for him the fist sessioin of the finals as he was making some errors that Robertson was capitalizing on, but he hung in there and didn't give up. Towards the end, it was Robertson making the errors and Ronnie making good on them, though I can truly say I don't care for the commentator on the last sessioin. He constantly is talking, talking, talking. I turned the volume down after a bit as I was tired this.
