I FEEL SORRY FOR RONNIE

Carter on Rocket blast: I don’t think he knows what’s going to come out of his mouth

ALI CARTER believes bogeyman Ronnie O’Sullivan is “mentally unwell” after being on the receiving end of his explosive X-rated rant. 

The Rocket showed his unabating class to beat nemesis Carter and pocket an eighth Masters title, adding a staggering 23rd Triple Crown trophy to his burgeoning collection, on Sunday.

But the aftermath turned sour as foulmouthed O’Sullivan told Carter to “sort his f***ing life out” and “grow some balls” in an astonishing expletive-laden tirade after his opponent accused him of “snotting” on the Ally Pally floor.

The world No.1, already embroiled in disciplinary proceedings for disparaging comments about the game’s rulers earlier this season, is being investigated by World Snooker Tour for his latest startling outburst.
