Ronnie O`Sullivan Trough Despite Late Drama

O`Sullivan started his defense of the title against Ricky Walden, who didn't settle down in the start of the match. O`Sullivan took advantage of it winning the first two frames with a low Top Break of 38.

The level was very down when Breaks of 36 and 30 were enough to give Walden his first frame on the board, 1(11)2.

But then, O`Sullivan started to show a great form to put a foot in the next Round, as he went 5(11)1 up with Breaks of 77, 91 & 100.

But Walden started a dangerous fightback winning 3 nice frames with a Top Break of 100, putting himself one away to force a decider and getting the drama inside the match.

But Ronnie saved the best to the end as he did a Break of 116 (fluking the yellow on 89) to close up the match, equaling Hendry's record of 775 Career Century Breaks.
