Wise words from Milkins in his interview with the beeb, through to another ranking final, a fine couple of weeks for Robert.

Amateur Daniel Wells has hit back at world champion Ronnie O'Sullivan for saying he was not good enough to return as a professional.

O'Sullivan claimed the Welshman was "never" going to win a tournament.

Wells proved a point with a shock win over Masters champion Judd Trump in the Welsh Open this week.

Now he has rounded on the world number one - whom Wells regards among his snooker heroes - for comments that could impact a player's mental health.

O'Sullivan told Eurosport before Wells' match against Trump in the last 32 in Llandudno: "He's never going to be a tournament winner. He's just not good enough.

"He should just stay as a part-time player, irrelevant of how well he does - the pressure is off him.

"Next year if he gets a main tour card and invests totally in snooker I bet he goes back to getting beaten and not enjoying it again.

"There's a lot of players on tour who can't mentally sustain it. If I was advising him I'd tell him to stay as a part-time player - you're having fun and enjoying it. That's the way he's going to play his best snooker."

I’ve seen some great safety from Milkins recently. As long as he applies it today and keeps his head, he might have Murphy where he wants him. I think this will ultimately come down to pressure: Murphy as the favourite, and Milkins with Ł230k weighing on his mind.
