Ronnie STILL Thinks Ali Carter is “Mr. Angry”

Inside Ronnie O’Sullivan and Ali Carter’s feud: Although they were friends growing up in Essex, their rivalry has become the fiercest in snooker thanks to jabs from the baize, a shoulder barge at the Crucible, and the Rocket’s X-rated tirade about “sort your f***ing life out.”Yes, he will [maintain his world title] if his head doesn’t come off. But everyone knows that anyone can defeat him if he loses his head. Nobody can defeat him if he plays like he did today,’ Carter remarked.

Pointblank, he continued, ‘I think he’s done the right thing having a year off; in fact, I might do that next year. Why not?

 

When Carter defeated O’Sullivan in the second round of the 2018 World Championship at the Crucible, things really got hot.

 

However, that was eclipsed by ‘Barge-gate,’ where O’Sullivan purposefully went toward Carter following a snooker flake in the suspenseful 19th frame.

 

 

After defeating Carter 10-7 in the Masters final on Sunday, O’Sullivan was furious with him.
After launching a foul-mouthed tirade, Rocket held up his middle finger.
Carter had accused him of’snotting all over the floor’ throughout the game, which prompted this.
Although Ronnie O’Sullivan and Ali Carter played snooker together as children and both grew up in Essex, it’s safe to say that their friendship is now officially gone.

That has been ensured by O’Sullivan’s outrageous, foul-mouthed tirade about Carter, in which he advised his old friend to “sort his f***ing life out” and seek counseling.

It happened after Carter labeled his opponent’s supporters “morons” and accused him of “snotting all over the floor” after losing to O’Sullivan 10–7 in Sunday’s snooker Masters final at Alexandra Palace.

That exchange ran very counter to the refined image of snooker, at least since stage legends like Alex Higgins left in the 1980s.

Nicknamed ‘The Captain’ due to his passion for flying, Carter is a Colchester native who has won five ranking competitions. In 2010, he momentarily rose to the top of the world rankings.

However, his achievements pale in comparison to O’Sullivan’s, who continues to reside in his childhood home in Chigwell, Essex.

The 48-year-old Rocket is regarded as the best snooker cue player of all time, having won seven World Championships, eight Masters titles, and eight UK Championships.

Carter has faced defeat twice in his fight to reach the World Championship final at Sheffield’s storied Crucible Theatre, both times at the hands of O’Sullivan.

The final score was 18-8 in 2008, while O’Sullivan prevailed 18-11 four years later.

In.

Claiming luck was on his side, Carter took aim at O’Sullivan’s justifications after losing 13–8 in the second round.

Yes, he will [maintain his world title] if his head doesn’t come off. But everyone knows that anyone can defeat him if he loses his head. Nobody can defeat him if he plays like he did today,’ Carter remarked.
