- 1990 Thames snooker classic featuring 14 year old Ronnie O'sullivan's first ever television appearance
PS SORRY ABOUT THE PICTURE QUALITY AS THESE VIDEOS ARE 32 YEARS OLD - กีฬา
What a rare chance to see young Ronnie at the beginning of becoming the greatest player the world has ever known. Brilliant footage .
you could put his 2024 face to that footage and barely see a difference. The way he moves and all...it's is all there. And he is still so fit too
Ninguém imaginava a lenda que estava ali, diante de todos.
Hoje, março de 2024, afirmo tranquilamente que poucos são os mitos em suas respectivas especialidades.
No tênis temos grandes nomes, é difícil definir o maior, mesmo para os que entendem muito do esporte. Ainda não existe o top aclamado!
Na fórmula 1, temos Schumacher, Ayrton Senna, e agora o inglês Louis Hamilton. E ainda existe o antigo Manuel Fangio, quase o mito.
Mas existem áreas que os mitos são indiscutíveis, ainda que muitos discordem, mas a maioria sabe!
Snooker - Ronnie O'Sullivan
Pool - Efren Reyes
Futebol - Pelé
M.M.A - Bruce Lee
Basquete - Michael Jordan
Xadrez - Kasparov
Corredor - Usain Bolt
Essas lendas são aclamadas pelos seus respectivos especialistas.
@@paulo586. Do your homework . Don’t forget the great Stirling moss and George best.
@@rockinginafreeworld3256, não conheço. Desculpa, nunca ouvi falar.
Mas pesquisei no Google, e não concordo. Eu nunca ouvi falar!
Lendas o mundo conhece amigo. O mundo todo!
It is also a rare chance to see a convicted murderer being interviewed prior to his crimes. He seemed so normal.
This kid got potential, wishing him all the best in future career! 🎉
Let's just hope he doesn't waste his talent spending time on tiktok...
is this a joke?
@@jamilulizwan173 where? The guy is an amazing showman! I'd bet once he is going to become multiple times world champion and even create his own video drill system! I see that as obvious as my own reflection in the mirror.
@@M1kaTck Yup. I reckon if he applies himself he will do ok. I think he has a fair amount of talent. I hear another youngster by name of Hendry is one to watch also.
You guys are hilarious 😂😂😂
Lovely to see the interaction with his dad. There were obviously later issues but his dad seems proud of his son and it's nice to see.
Issues being an understatement lol.
I heard it was self defense.@@Paul-sl9zm
@@Paul-sl9zm I'm sure he meant it as a figure of speech because he didn't want to bring all that up again as its a horrible subject. So chill out lol
Issues indeed.
This young 14 year old is going to be a future champion. Mark my words 🤜🏆🤛
😂he is the best player in the world
He was joking, @@azaantariq5009
The pace of play is simply incredible.
That's why they called him the Rocket man
You should see Ebdon.
@@ruperttristanblythe7512 Dave Harold is slower
he reads the table and next is just muscle memory kicking in
It was plain to see back then where Ronnie was heading but nobody could have guessed how far his achievements would go. Amazing to think after three and a half decades he is still at the top. We have definitely lived through the greatest era of snooker, I can’t imagine anyone coming close to what he has achieved in our lifetimes, love him or hate him you cannot fault his talent.
Even at 14 he was considered the favorite to win the tournament what a legend
What a joy to watch and a lovely interview at the end. So innocent!
Loved how hos dad gave his son a kiss at the beginning. 👍🏻
Such a shame what happened afterwards and he had to go to prison.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
When the commentator said “Ronnie O’Sulivan” at 5:30 it is a familiar sound to us all as snooker fans, but this is the first time. It rolled off his tongue like he was already the GOAT.
He was already the Rocket !
EL ERA MĂTA BOULE!🤣🤣🤣
What is truly incredible is that this was 34 years ago, and even then he was a really quick player!
Even more remarkable is that Ronnie is currently the World No 1 at the age of 48.
If you wanted a true and accurate description of the word “GENIUS” then watching Ronnie at any age would be a great idea!
The GOAT
What a lovely piece in history, ronnie is just wonderful.
Great, great video!!!!! Although he had already gained recognition as a fine player at 14 years old this performance showcased his talents to a broad audience and we all know how this wound up! Without question, perhaps the finest snooker player of all time!!! Besides his obvious talents also on display was his poise, confidence and when asked if he was nervous playing on television, without hesitation he replied, "No."
Ainda não acabou...
Si ! @@rbc0505
That’s amazing.. theirs not many people in the world where the person they idol ends up idolising them.
There's
Edmun
At age of fourteen
OMG the shot @8:26 was crazy. The commentator probably couldn't believe his eyes and was left absolutely speechless.
Thank you man, great video for us.
Greetings from Greece to the master of Snooker ❤
Thanks for the great video. Of all the players in that tournament the only one to make it was Ronnie. And seeing that performance it must have been obvious to everyone he was a future star. Great too to see his father, who got him into the game in the first place, and who was clearly really proud of his son. What a pity he had his later problems. So unlucky.
This is absolutely fabulous!!
Amazing. He was already so good at so young age. Thanks for sharing the video.
Glad you enjoyed it
From 34 years ago until the present, Ronnie stroke has not changed that much. You can totally see from this video that it’s no wonder why he’s the best snooker player to ever hold a cue!!! There is only one Ronnie, the rocket O’Sullivan…. he was born to do this.
He's playing so fast and precise as a 14yo... Insane
I love how he was touching his chin in the exact same way back then, as he does today.
Oh, man. This is brilliant! Thank you for the video!
that was awesome, worthy of commentary. So I'm leaving a comment.
Amazing ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
I know talent when i see it and this kid ronnie is going to be the future of snooker for sure mark my words i said this in 2024
Such a natural talent.. still hard to believe it took him so long to get his first world title under his belt, and now 32 years or so later he's gunning for his 8th world title.. From prodigy to legend!!!
Ronnie awesome, great character❤
Very much appreciated
World greatest ever snooker player in the making
Fabulous stuff since the first shot 👏.
Watching him with his dad at that age reminded me of himself with his daughter of about same age he was at that time on a world championship event! He’s a great guy. This is the first time this video appeared in my feed today n man o man I’ll never forget the face of that other kid ventham.
At the very young age already played like a rocket..
Fascinating game with 13 greens
lol
as a colourblind guy I'd be watching stuff like this back in the day wondering what the hell they were talking about :D
Brilliant. Not surprising, none of the quarter-finalists other than Ronnie made it to the world top.
Very talented. He is my favorite snooker player. That table is big 12x6 in size. We only have pool table here in ph (9x4 1/2 feet)
I wish we have that table here so i can play snooker and try the tiny pockets.
From 🇵🇭
GOAT
Great video !
It's just amazing how everyone knows he's going to be the best, just the way thay we're talking about him. ❤
This was the year when I started playing snooker, Steve Davis and Jimmy white were my favourite until I saw ronnie growing up. Roonie ❤
Ronnie the best, miał 14 lat a jak już pogrywał, wspaniała kariera mistrza snookera. i'm fan Ronnie, he is my idol.
Bonjourrrr!!!
Oh, the laconicism of that ref when our boy casually makes another exquisite shot. Hilarious stuff. Who'd have thunk it, even if he was only 14? His dad seemed a jolly bloke too, nice to see their rapport
It would be more hilarious if the ref did anything except his job.
this kid is going places...
I was 20 in 1990. I don't remember technology being that bad that looking at a snooker match would make me think I'm color blind..
CRT tvs were far superior to the shit we have today.
@@highjim7778 You know.
Hilarious 😂 😂😂😂
Coincidentally the same year Hendry(then 21)won his 1st world championship.
He played fast at the young age...what a talent
Hey, ya know. He will probably go on to make a very good player and might even win a few events this young man!
Watching him and his dad 🥹🥹🥹
Nice respect to Steve Davis. Both legends... And Alex Higgins also! These 3 are my favourites.
Просто чудо что есть такая запись, юный Ронни, какая игра!
Ronnie refused the maximum break , piss poor prize money
Video quality was so bad then, you couldn't see the colors of the balls even from up close.
Nowadays we have 4k OLED TVs, you can see fly's arse on the far edge of the snooker table.
I grew up watching hes games on eurosport tv channel in Kyrgyzstan!Respect to Ronnie!True legend of this beautiful game!
Ronnie of Sullivan really was the k pop idol of snooker my word this child was beautiful and good at snooker wow
The what?
And Steve Ventham was the one who played Stephen Hendry in junior pot black in 1983
Es una leyenda Ronnie 😌👍
He still play like this but with more finesse
This is adorable tbh
4:30 How many times have those words been uttered over the years...
People sitting in the audience never knew they were watching future star and father of snooker
🐐 in making
I wonder what was going through Steve Ventham's head watching that? A few years earlier he was probably looking at the senior players who would soon be gone, then Stephen Hendry appeared and then THIS!
Ronnie was never into boring wasting time play even at 14.
I didn't know Tony Wilson was involved in snooker too (this is the time of peak Madchester, i assumed that was keeping him busy)
Steve was right, it was a close shop in those days
The majestic Ronnie at 14. His father very strangely kisses him on his lips!
❤❤❤
💛
Little do they know, this kid is going to be the greatest of all time
What a baller move leaving that last 8 on the table 🎱
First time I've seen Ronnie senior
Handsome r. jhon O'Sullivan
Какой молоденький Ронни, симпатичный, славный!
Baby 🐐
Lovely
The GOAT
Wow...If Ronnie had known then what he knows now!
Funny to see him back before he adopted his left handed shots. He broke out the rest a bit more often than I'm used to seeing Ronnie do.
Those were the days when you could kiss your kids in public without anyone judging
He's 14yrs old screw back better that me 44yrs old
Ronnie 14yrs old talking no much different than today
They had NO idea what this man would become...
Some people get life right & Ronnie got it right. He did what he was put here to do & executed it perfectly
Pretty wild statement saying he got life right. Should maybe read up on his trials and tribulations
@@StuPhee 🥱
Sublime et précoce, unique et enlevant, Ronnie est sui generis.
I think this kid could do quite well.....
His dad seems like a lovely bloke 👍
Whatever you do don't Google 'Ronnie O'Sullivan dad'
😂😂😂@@georgewilliams7270
damn he beat my highest break at 14 in a televised tournament
Ronnie the 🐐
Best in the 🌍
🇬🇧👍🏻
Ronnie is the best
Joga muito 👏👏👏👏👏👍👌
He was the best from the start
i bet someone in the audience said "this kid is a prodigy"
Reminds me of Judd when he first met Ronnie. A very shy kid, with a softest voice you can imagine. Now Judd's cue is the loudest. 🤣🤣🤣
Ronnie O'Sullivan' du bliver verdens bedste snookerspiller
He's the most dominant player snooker has ever seen.
Naw he isny THE WONDERBAIRN WAS THE MOST RUTHLESS AND WINNER SNOOKER HAS SEEN ALSO DOMINATED THE SPORT 5 masters 5 worlds on the spin never to be seen again
Unreal
Esse jovem parece ter potencial rsrs
He will do well that kid
This kid seems pretty good in snooker, he may get far if he keeps practising
while selby played 1 set, ronnie finished 3 sets
they play tennis as well?
