Relevant quote from the article about a game 5 months ago: > In the semifinal, O’Sullivan found himself 4–1 down and on the brink of losing to Stuart Bingham, the ninth-ranked player in the world. “That was a match where I just thought, I’m not going to be pushed around by someone like Stuart,” O’Sullivan told me afterward. “I’m not ready to accept that role yet. I fucking hated that match.” He won, 6–5. (Bingham being the same player who just beat him) After this defeat it sounds like he's thinking of quitting again, but I certainly wouldn't put money on him staying away.
