Ronnie O'Sullivan's supreme talent and style have made him the People's Champion. At 15, he became the youngest player to compile a recognised maximum break; at 17, he became the youngest winner of a world-ranking tournament; in 1997 he recorded the fastest 147 break in history; and in 2001 he confirmed his legendary status by winning the Embassy World Title. His autobiography details more than the sporting triumphs of a man the BBC speculates 'could become the world's greatest ever'. It also tells of the infant who was introduced to legendary snooker clubs at an impossibly early age, of the boy who was taking on and defeating all comers at 12 and frightening off the bookies in the process, of the teenager whose life was decimated when his father and mentor was sent to prison for life; of the man dubbed the 'genius' of the modern game who regularly threatens to quit the sport to pursue other interests.

喜欢奥沙利文十几年了，这本书貌似没有中文版，几年前读的时候我写了很多读书笔记，后来为了方便分享，就在贴吧开帖逐页翻译这本书，当时很多人跟楼看，后来因为生活里的一些变故，没心情与精力继续翻译更新结尾的部分，帖子虽然加精但是未完结。刚才查资料点到贴吧消息提醒，发现还有很多球迷在我那个帖子里留言，一些球迷问我这一年多过得好不好，我也不知道怎么回复，但是蛮感动的。

唧歪个不停的一本。马威和亨看了当然会不满，直接拉黑这种裹脚布。

爷爷辈三个都是拳击手，大爷爷是英国和欧洲冠军。No top sportsman is fat. Genius and idiot side by side.

今年读过最好的书了（虽然才4月）一边看一边有负面报道出（当然对于罗尼，这是常态，媒体从不留情）我完全想象得出他看到这些新闻的感受，比如这次北京公开赛抽烟的事儿。总之作为球迷，看完这本书，你会对他有全新的“洗心革面”的深入了解，从而更理解他，更佩服他，更爱他（反正我是这样的）
