Ronnie O`Sullivan vs Iulian Boiko Prediction
The anticipation of Ronnie O'Sullivan's return could not be higher after being absent on tour for the past 4 months. It means he has fallen down the rankings to World Number 5, having not played competitively since early January. However his performance at the saudi arabia tournament raised him higher up. Always tough to lose but going into the week I would've been delighted to see Ronnie reach the final. Still, a brilliant week: two 147s, comeback wins and his resilience to battle back from 2-7 today, also up to No.4 in the rankings. A choice for a winner is easier as I believe that Ronnie will get the win easily.
