'I'd hate to finish career like this' - O'Sullivan
Ronnie O'Sullivan says he does not "want to throw in the towel just yet" after losing 6-3 to Chang Bingyu in the semi-finals of the Wuhan Open.
Ronnie O Sullivan, the seven-time world champion, expressed disappointment over his recent defeat at the Wuhan Open semi-finals. The Englishman, who has not won a ranking event in over two years, was beaten 6-3 by Chang Bingyu in the semi-finals on Friday. O Sullivan, now 50, admitted that he does not want to retire just yet and wants to give himself a chance to compete for another 18 months.
He detailed his struggles with depression and anxiety, which have been a significant factor in his recent performances. Despite leading 2-2 at the halfway point, O Sullivan struggled to maintain his form, with Chang eventually securing victory. Chang will now face Zhao Xintong, the new world number one, in the final.
