Switzerland’s top player Alexander Ursenbacher reflects on his outstanding record against Ronnie O’Sullivan in the new episode of the WST Podcast.
Aside from one Championship League defeat, Ursenbacher has won all three of his meetings with World Champion O’Sullivan, at the 2019 Welsh Open, 2020 UK Championship and 2022 British Open.
“After the first time I beat Ronnie, I really started to believe that I can beat anyone if I play well,” said the former English Open semi-finalist. “When I drew him again in the UK, I didn’t fear him, I just felt this is exciting, to be playing the greatest ever at one of the biggest tournaments. He brings the best mindset out of me because it’s the ultimate test. If you are not up for that, I don’t know why you are holding a cue. I understand why players get intimidated because he is really intimidating, but I just love the challenge. He has said that he likes my mindset because I just play the table, rather than the opponent.”
