Description:
An irritable Ronnie O'Sullivan clashed with referee Desislava Bozhilova before crashing out of the World Snooker Championship at the quarter-final stage.<br/><br/>The Rocket was beaten 13-10 by Stuart Bingham as his hopes of winning a record eighth Crucible title went up in smoke.<br/><br/>But there was a flashpoint in the 21st frame when play was interrupted by spectators watching the adjacent match between Kyren Wilson and John Higgins returning to their seats.<br/><br/>O'Sullivan was about to take a shot when he was distracted by the noise and movement across the auditorium and he opted to sit down until the crowd settled.<br/><br/>Bozhilova attempted to prevent anyone else from entering the arena with the other match at the mid-session interval but wasn't successful.<br/><br/>She said: 'They're not going to let anybody in. They're all sat down now. We might be waiting 20 minutes, you know what I mean?'<br/><br/>When O'Sullivan finally returned to the table, he told the Bulgarian referee to 'just chill' before potting a long red.<br/><br/>However, it wasn't the prelude to a victory as Bingham pulled away to win that frame and the next two.<br/><br/>Earlier, O'Sullivan claimed 'the referees have got it in for me' after a contentious moment over a rolling black.<br/><br/>In the 12th frame, O'Sullivan potted the black for 29, with Bingham on 43. However, when Bozhilova re-spotted the black, it obstructed his shot at the next red by rolling slightly closer to the cue ball.<br/><br/>In a show of good sportsmanship, O'Sullivan offered Bingham the chance to look closely at the situation.<br/><br/>After the black's position was adjusted slightly, he could have potentially potted the red but instead, O'Sullivan decided to play a safety shot. Bingham ultimately won the frame.<br/><br/>During the break between sessions, O'Sullivan hit out at Bozhilova in an interview on Eurosport.<br/><br/>'It's just a normal day for me, a bit of snooker, a bit of food, chill out, went to the gym this morning, nice day,' he said. <br/><br/>'To be honest with you some of the referees have got it in for me. I just wanted to prove to her that she had got it wrong.<br/><br/>'Then I thought I didn't feel good about having to pot the ball after that but I just wanted to make a point. The point was made.<br/><br/>'I'm not that hungry to win in that way, I'm more of a principled person.'<br/><br/>The Crucible semi-finals will see Wilson take on David Gilbert and Bingham play Jak Jones, with the two best-of-33 matches underway on Thursday.<br/><br/>After his defeat, O'Sullivan said his 'arm was twisted' to come and compete at the Crucible this year.<br/><br/>'I wasn't going to be playing in this one until a new sponsor came along and said [you need to play in it],' he said.<br/><br/>'I wasn't going to play Manchester or this because of how I was feeling about playing. So they twisted my arm.

'I haven't had too much to eat. I had a cheeseburger around half two.<br/><br/>'That might explain why I'm slurring my words because I've had about eight pints in the yellow wall. I've got a new family, a family and friends. We all looked after each other. <br/><br/>Fans were then treated to an amusing interaction as Carragher spotted Sancho and pulled him over for an interview. <br/><br/>Putting his arm around the game's man of the match, Carragher said: 'I've just been in the Yellow Wall. You know it very well. That was one of the best experiences of my life.'<br/><br/>Carragher admitted he didn't have the best view but told Sancho that his fellow pundits including Thierry Henry were raving about him with the camera quickly cutting to Henry, who had his head in his hands.<br/><br/>'I've found a new family, new friends,' Carragher continued. 'They bought me pints of lager all night.'<br/><br/>The interview finished with Carragher asking Sancho if he would go into the Yellow Wall with Schmeichel stepping in to tell him he's not ready yet because he'd have to get in the same state as Carragher.<br/><br/>Carragher was unfazed, asking Sancho if they could have a few pints if Dortmund got to the final. Sancho laughed and replied that he didn't drink. <br/><br/>Schmeichel had seen enough, sending his colleague to the 'sin bin' after Sancho had made his exit.")

_ronnie-osullivan-out-of-world-snooker-championship-in-nailbiter-vs-stuart-bingham-after-sportingly-gifting-him-frame.webp "RONNIE O’SULLIVAN was booted out of the World Snooker Championship by Stuart Bingham – but then revealed he considered not competing in the tournament.<br/><br/>And the Rocket reckons some referees “have got it in for me” as his quest for Crucible No.8 rolls over until next year.<br/><br/>Bingham, the 2015 world champion, progressed to the semi-finals following a stunning 13-10 victory and celebrated with a glass of red wine.<br/><br/>Yet seven-time world champion O’Sullivan, 48, said he only attended after being persuaded to do so by a new sponsor.<br/><br/>O’Sullivan, who PUNCHED the table in anger after one poor shot, said: “I wasn’t going to play the Tour Championship in Manchester or this because of how I was feeling about playing.<br/><br/>“They sort of twisted my arm. It’s first come, first served. I have signed up for 8-9 events next year.<br/><br/>“There are only so many days I allow myself to be away from home. You cannot do it all.<br/><br/>“I would have done (punditry) days with Eurosport here. They’ve been pretty good with me. I wanted to fulfill that.<br/><br/>“There are so many things to do in my life, man. I have such a busy, good life.<br/><br/>“Probably done painting with Damien Hirst, ate good food, taken the dogs out, seen my children, gone to Champney’s Spa.<br/><br/>“It might sound boring to you but it’s bloody exciting to me.”<br/><br/>O’Sullivan was praised in frame 12 by former world champion Neil Robertson for “the greatest bit of sportsmanship I’ve ever seen” after he turned down a chance to pot a red.<br/><br/>Trailing by 14 points, it appeared he was unsure whether the black -which referee Desislava Bozhilova has just respotted - was lying correcting on its spot, thus making the red pottable.<br/><br/>Rather than pot the red, O'Sullivan opted to instead play a safety shot after more than four-and-a-half minutes of deliberation – as the black ball was respotted about 10 times.<br/><br/>Australian cueist Robbo, working for the BBC praised O’Sullivan for telling ref Bozhilova she had not placed the black back accurately and was giving him an unfair advantage.<br/><br/>O'Sullivan went on to lose the frame.<br/><br/>But O’Sullivan admitted: “To be honest with you, some of the referees I think they’ve got it in for me.<br/><br/>“So I just wanted to prove to her that she’d got it wrong.<br/><br/>“I didn’t feel good about having to pot the ball after that. But I just wanted to make a point.<br/><br/>“I’m not that hungry to win in that way. I’m more of a principled person, so once the principle’s been made I can sleep at night.”<br/><br/>The World Snooker Tour refutes those allegations and insists the referee acted correctly and appropriately.<br/><br/>Bingham, who hit a 104 in the penultimate frame, cried backstage as he edged closer to a second world title – and now faces qualifier Jak Jones over four sessions across three days.")
