Ronnie O’Sullivan has the advantage, having played the first session of the match against Luca Bresel (the tenth player in the world). World leader and reigning champion Ronnie leads with a score of 6-2.

Ronnie O’Sullivan – Luca Bresel 6-2, in the Crucible WC snooker tournament

The Belgian started the match better, leading alternately 1-0 and 2-1, but from that moment Ronnie dominated the session. O’Sullivan won five straight frames and in the booths he won 6-2 in favor of the reigning world champion.

The one with the nickname “Rocket” had the most problems in the seventh frame, when, although he was in full control of the game, he committed two fouls (in the second, he touched the ball with his clothes).

The fate of the frame was difficult, but after Bresel missed the pink ball, the game still went in O’Sullivan’s favor.
