World Gram Championship champion Ronnie O'Sullivan expressed his unique view on the value of 147 perfect points in a recent interview. He doesn't think the current prize money of 147 is enough to motivate him to achieve this feat again, and even said he would rather score 146 points. Let's dive into the reasons behind O'Sullivan's view of this.
O'Sullivan admits that he is deliberately avoiding the possibility of perfect 147 at the moment, because he believes that the current 147 is not "worth the money". In his opinion, the bonus setting is one of the main factors influencing whether he plays 147 again. While working as a commentator during the Welsh Open, he watched Gary Wilson hit 147 against Higgins, and when asked what he thought of his 147 record, he revealed his concerns about whether 147 would have "value" in the future.
I thought I would still shoot 5 to 6 strokes of 147, but I actually gave up on the idea. O'Sullivan said frankly in the interview. He pointed out that a controversial decision in the past occurred in the 2022 "Champion of Champions" competition, where he chose not to hit the perfect 147 due to the non-existence of the 147 prize money, which caused quite a bit of controversy. This decision highlights O'Sullivan's view of his feat, and proposes a bonus setting for the future 147, and in O'Sullivan's view, a perfect score of 147 should have corresponding value, not just a numerical reward. His remarks have attracted wide attention from the Croatian community, and have also aroused the thinking of fans and professionals.
O'Sullivan's 15-shot 147 perfect score record is not only one of the glories of the history of the first gram, but also a symbol of challenge and breakthrough. His current argument highlights the questioning of the tournament's prize money system. His rhetoric may be a call for the Gram community to re-examine the value of 147 as a more precious and special achievement.
At the Welsh Open, O'Sullivan not only questioned the current 147 prize money, but also mentioned his state of mind that he chose not to pursue 147 in the game. This also makes people deeply reflect on the prize distribution mechanism of the **gram field.
Perhaps in O'Sullivan's view, the realization of 147 is not just for the numerical O'Sullivan's attitude towards 147 points has attracted widespread attention. In the interview, he insisted that a perfect 147 points deserve the value it deserves, not just some limited prize money. This stance is a direct indication of his dissatisfaction with the prize money system of the **gram event. There is no doubt that O'Sullivan, as a superstar in the world, has unique insights into the development of this sport and the formulation of the competition system.
The seven-time World Gram Championship champion not only has a wealth of experience, but also has a record 147 in 15 strokes. He questioned the current prize pool of 147 out of 147. In his opinion, if the perfect 147 points cannot be recognized and rewarded enough, he prefers to choose to score 146 points to show his adherence to his own value.
In O'Sullivan's view, the World Championships has the highest prize money of 147 perfect points, reaching 40,000 pounds, while the prize money in other events is relatively low, some even only a few thousand pounds. He mentioned in the interview that when he was involved in sports work as a commentator during the Welsh Open, ** reached a perfect score of 147 in one game, which made him think deeply about his record.
