Bet of the day: O’Sullivan topples Holt 4-2 in World Grand Prix

O’Sullivan has secured the sought-after Grand Prix crown once before, toppling the likes of current world number one Mark Selby, baize legend Paul Hunter and defiant Scot Graeme Dott along the way to success back in 2004.

Over a decade later, the Rocket will look to take off once again, but must first deal with the threat of the Hitman, who he holds a superior head-to-head record over since first colliding in 2002.

Crowd favourite O’Sullivan has prevailed in five of six previous competitive meetings with the Nottingham cueist, including a dominant streak in their short format battles.

Of those five successes, the 28-time ranking event winner has edged Holt out by two frames on three occasions, with his only defeat coming back in 2007 during a Malta Cup clash. Though, with odds of 10/3 available on O’Sullivan securing another two-frame coup with a 4-2 result, make sure you don’t miss out on Coral’s promising bet of the day!
