He hasn't got the same winning mentality for one thing.No he isn't. Ronnie has been saying for years he's not prepared to put the work in to be a great multi-world title winner like Hendry. He has said all along he'll just play when he feels like it.  That makes him a spectacular player, sometimes, but it's not what makes a multiple title winner like Hendry or Davis. That takes dedication and discipline. 2 things Ronnie completely lacks. He will even admit that himself.I think anyone who knows anything about snooker would realise that Steven Hendry in his prime was mentally stronger than Ronnie by far. No, I meant exactly what I said. There are spectacularly talented snooker players (Higgins, White, O'Sullivan) and there are great sportsmen in snooker (Reardon, Davis, Hendry)Higgins won 2 world titles, White never won any, Ronnie has won 3, so far.Reardon won 6, Davis won 6, Hendry won 7.When O'Sullivan wins 3 more world titles, then he can rightly be ranked up there with Reardon, Davis & Hendry. Not before.One final stat for you...Davis was 32 when he won his last world title.Hendry was 30 when he won his last.O'Sullivan is 33 already.</blockquote>
