RONNIE IN 7th HEAVEN

Ronnie O’Sullivan poses with the World Snooker Championship trophy after defeating fellow Englishman Judd Trump 18-13 in the final at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, England, on Monday. O’Sullivan, nicknamed the Rocket, tied Stephen Hendry’s modern-day record of seven world titles, and afterward said he will likely go for No 8 next year. “I don’t have targets... I like to win but it’s not the be-all and end-all,” said the 46-year-old after sharing a long, tearful embrace with Trump. “The Crucible brings out the worst in me — it’s probably not the best idea but we’ll probably go again next year!”
