Keith Richards says he is like Mozart. Damien Hirst makes the comparison with Picasso or Van Gogh, while Steve Davis simply describes him as "the best genius any sport has ever had".
The man himself winces at such descriptions.
"A genius? Cor, I don't know about that," says Ronnie O'Sullivan. "I've been semi-successful. I've done all right but I'm not the player I was. Who do I think will win the world championship? John Higgins. Have I been good for snooker? I don't know."
Such self-deprecation has long been an O'Sullivan trademark.
