If you ask the current top 128 of Snooker players who their favorite player is I'd wager over 100 of them will say it's Ronnie. He's the pro's pro. Very similar to Efren in that regard.
There is also 0% doubt that in top gear Ronnie is and has been for 30 years absolutely unstoppable. It simply doesn't matter who the other guy is and how good he's playing. Ronnie in top form simply blasts straight thru anyone and everyone, one cannot play the game any better then he does.
Yes, he has his mental gremlins but I truly believe without them he wouldn't be the player he is today. Yes there are other players who are better match/tournament players then he is because of their mental strength.
He is by far the best player, it's not even close. Later today he will silence the very last doubters by winning his record equalling 7th world title. He has allready won the most ranking titles, the most century breaks, the longest win streak and countless other records. Not even close. I wouldn't think it impossible he'll beat Davis's record of 81 titles (Ronnie's at 72 currently) and probably take Stephen's record aswell by winning an 8th in the next few years.
I agree with others in this topic that arguably his greatest achievement is the 2013 WC win after taking a year of. Must have been quite disheartening for the rest of the players.
