Snooker world No.1 Ronnie O’Sullivan was hailed by fans for his shot at the World Open which left the Chinese crowd in raptures and viewers at home stunned.<br/><br/>Snooker star Ronnie O’Sullivan has been lauded for a stunning pot that left all those watching on in disbelief.<br/><br/>The Rocket played in the World Open opening round against Michael White in Yushan, China, and got off to a winning start. During his 5-3 victory, O’Sullivan wasn’t at his demolition best but still provided a moment of what some claimed was utter brilliance.<br/><br/>Leading 2-1 at the time, the 48-year-old was cruising to clinch the fourth frame with just the blue and pink ball left on the table and White only scoring two points. O’Sullivan lined up a shot on the blue with the pink potentially blocking a way to the furthestmost pocket.<br/><br/>His shot saw the blue bounce off either side of the pocket before ricocheting back up to the other end of the table. The ball then bounced off two cushions and rolled into the open middle pocket – bringing cheers and applause from spectators and a smile across the face of the Rocket.<br/><br/>Although the commentator was skeptical about the Rocket’s shot, saying: “Quite amazing that that got the biggest cheer that we’ve heard that outrageous fluke.”<br/><br/>Fans on social media took a different view of O’Sullivan’s pot, one comment on Twitter said: “Genius at work,” while a second lauded: “The Master!”<br/><br/>Despite taking a 3-1 lead following that frame, O’Sullivan surrendered his advantage before trying to close out the match 4-3. The 48-year-old was visibly frustrated with himself.<br/><br/>He missed a long-range effort which would have left him in pole position to claim victory. The seven-time world champion bashed his cue down on the side of the table in anger, making a loud bang inside the venue.<br/><br/>The Rocket will face China’s Hoatian Lyu in the last 16 of the competition on Wednesday as he looks to land the £170,000 tournament cash prize. Elsewhere, there were wins for Luca Brecel and Judd Trump, while John Higgins was knocked out by Jackson Page.
