In a series of notable events at the Tour Championship, Ronnie O'Sullivan showcased his exceptional snooker skills, reaching the final after defeating Gary Wilson with a score of 10-7. The match was marked by intense moments, including Wilson slamming his cue on the ground in frustration and a significant table malfunction after just two frames, likened to an 'F1 pitstop' for its swift resolution. O'Sullivan's performance throughout the season has been historic, with earnings that could increase by six figures if he secures a win at the Tour Championship. His journey to the final was not without challenges, as Wilson expressed feeling 'sick' after attempting to emulate O'Sullivan's playing style, and O'Sullivan himself admitted to feeling 'scared' to play snooker at times. Additionally, the championship has sparked discussions around O'Sullivan potentially breaking Stephen Hendry's record at the World Snooker Championship, with Hendry making his stance clear on the matter. Chigwell's Ronnie O'Sullivan also hit three century breaks as he reached the final of the Tour Championship.
