Davis has hailed the Rocket as“a genius” during a career that has seen O'Sullivan's interest waver and the player overcome problems with depression, alcohol and drugs. 希金斯去年在白金漢宮被授與ＭＢＥ大英帝國勳章，加入史蒂夫‧戴維斯、史蒂芬 ‧亨德利、約翰‧帕洛特、馬克‧威廉斯和吉米‧懷特的受勳司諾克名人榜。戴維斯承認火箭是一名「天才」，在他的生涯中，他見過歐蘇利文對司諾克的愛好產生動搖，但也見到他戰勝憂鬱症、酗酒及毒品。 But world champion Higgins is baffled that the huge contribution of O'Sullivan continues to be overlooked. Higgins, who takes on Mark Allen at the Masters at Wembley Arena tomorrow, said:“If all us other players have had it, I don't know why Ronnie O'Sullivan shouldn't. 但世界冠軍希金斯對持續忽視歐蘇利文的巨大貢獻此事感到不解。在溫布利場館明天大師賽將對決馬克‧艾倫的希金斯說：「如果我們幾位都能獲得授勳，我不知道羅尼‧蘇歐利文為什麼不能？」 “He has probably done more for the game in many ways than myself, or Mark Williams. 「他以各種方法為司諾克所付出的貢獻，大概比我自己和馬克‧威廉斯都還要多。」 “What more does he have to do? It's what he has won and the fans he brings in with the way he plays. I believe what Ronnie has done should be recognised.” 「他還需要做什麼？他所贏得的比賽和他所帶來的球迷就已經夠了。我認為羅尼的所作所為應當被認可。」 O'Sullivan, who faces Grand Prix champion Neil Robertson today, shrugged off the calls. He said:“The only public recognition I have had or needed was from the fans. 今天要對決大獎賽冠軍尼爾‧羅柏森的歐蘇利文不太想理這件事。他說：「我唯一需要的公眾認可，是我已經擁有的來自球迷的認可。」 “If I get a granny who is 90-years-old, who says to me that she really enjoyed my match, that gives me a massive buzz. 「如果有位９０歲的老奶奶跟我說她很享受我的比賽，那能使我深深地陶醉在愉悅之中。」 “Medals or honours can't beat that.” 「這種感覺不是勳章或榮譽比得上的。」 Shaun Murphy edged out six-time winner Stephen Hendry 6-4, while Mark Williams ended the hopes of wildcard qualifier Rory McLeod 6-2. 尚恩‧莫菲６比４淘汰六次大師賽冠軍史蒂芬‧亨德利，而馬克‧威廉斯則６比２終結外卡希望羅瑞‧麥克里歐。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 115.81.100.254
