Simply the Best - Clive Everton

In 2018, 'Rocket' Ronnie O'Sullivan further cemented his position as one of snooker's all-time greats by claiming his record-breaking seventh Masters title. 'Simply the Best' traces Ronnie's course from carefree junior prodigy to deeply troubled and depressed adult, and so to maturity and self-knowledge. Along the way, he emerges as instinctively warm-hearted, the most loyal of sons and a true sportsman in his acceptance of defeat. Even so, this is no hagiography. Full consideration is given to Ronnie's episodes of vulgarity and stupidity in a rounded portrait of one of snooker's most fascinating, complicated and successful characters.
