Ronnie O'Sullivan is often referred to as the most naturally gifted snooker player of all time.He was a child prodigy who has gone on to become one of the most popular world champions the game has produced.
So how did Ronnie reach the pinnacle of his sport?
The game quickly became the love of Ronnie's life and he would spend every moment he could cueing away on the green baize.
He used to beg his neighbour, who was four years older than him, to come and play with him.
The first tournament success was achieved when Ronnie was nine.
He won a competition between six players in a local club - eventually getting his hands on his first trophy and a voucher for six hours free table time.
At the ripe old age of 10, he completed a 117 clearance - despite being so nervous he was petrified of missing his pots once he had reached triple figures.
Ronnie collected a £450 cheque for his victory and proudly took it to school to show his fellow pupils and teachers.
His headmaster rewarded him with the afternoon off lessons and a cup of tea!
Ronnie's big breakthrough came in a professional-amateur tournament in Stevenage when he was 14.
The match was played over five frames, and in the deciding frame, Ronnie produced a 120 break to clinch victory.
Later, Gavreau said: "That kid is unbelievable. Where's he come from? No-one's ever played that well against me."
Ronnie made it to the final of the competition, where he faced Anthony Hamilton.
It was reward for the practice Ronnie was putting in - six or seven hours a day when he was not at school, and maybe three or four hours if he was.
Ronnie's name was becoming familiar on the club circuit now and it wouldn't be long before a wider audience would know his face too.
To qualify for the tournament, players had to win a competition in their local club - then they played a single frame against six opponents.
Impressive as Ronnie's performances had been early on, they were a mere appetiser for what was to come when he hit the ripe old age of 15.
Ronnie lost in the final of the UK Amateur championship, but along the way achieved a remarkable feat.
Aged 17 years and 11 months, Ronnie was crowned UK champion.
During this time, Ronnie recorded 5-0 victories over his opponents 22 times - one of the whitewashes came in Blackpool in a time of 43 minutes.
That beat Tony Drago's record for the quickest win.
It was soon afterwards that MC Alan Hughes gave Ronnie the nickname of "The Rocket".
Two more UK Championships followed in 1997 and 2001 - the latter proved to be the defining year for Ronnie.
It was then that Ronnie captured the World Championship - a title which has even eluded his hero, another supremely naturally gifted player, Jimmy White.
