Remarkable Ronnie smashes record, Kurt Maflin on his obscene gesture
After Ronnie O’Sullivan’s record-breaking first-round victory at the World Snooker Championship, we hear from The Rocket, Mark Williams and John Higgins, who are all safely into the last 16 at The Crucible yet again. Rachel Casey discusses the emergence of the Class of ‘92 with Phil Yates and Dominic Dale, who both saw it happen 28 years ago. Dale also talks about a humiliating defeat at the hands of O’Sullivan (though we also let him mention a rare win over Ronnie earlier this season). Meanwhile, dark horse Kurt Maflin tells Rachel he has underachieved so far in his career and talks about his obscene gesture going viral.
