Ronnie O’Sullivan Credits Intermittent Fasting for World Snooker Championship Success
Ronnie O’Sullivan’s bid for a record eighth Crucible crown at the World Snooker Championship is gaining momentum as he credits intermittent fasting for his success. The 48-year-old snooker legend defeated Ryan Day 13-7 to secure his spot in the quarter-finals, showcasing his skill and determination on the green baize.
O’Sullivan spoke about the positive impact of intermittent fasting on his energy levels during the grueling 17-day tournament in Sheffield. By going around 16 hours without food and then breaking his fast strategically, O’Sullivan believes he is able to boost his energy and maintain focus throughout the competition.
In a post-match interview, O’Sullivan shared, “I just do what’s right for me. A lot of people think I have a specific plan, but I simply try to eat right and utilize intermittent fasting to give me that extra edge. This tournament requires endurance, stamina, and concentration, and intermittent fasting provides me with the energy I need to perform at my best.”
The snooker maestro revealed that he first discovered the benefits of intermittent fasting during a period of illness when he needed to give his stomach a rest. Since then, he has incorporated it into his routine and found it to be a game-changer for his performance on the table.
As O’Sullivan prepares for his quarter-final match, fans are eager to see if his unique approach to nutrition will continue to pay off. With his unmatched talent and strategic mindset, O’Sullivan remains a formidable force in the world of snooker, and his pursuit of another Crucible crown is a testament to his enduring legacy in the sport.
