Robertson: I'm better than ever
October 26, 2011 12:12:12 UK
2010 World Champion Neil Robertson has warned that his game is in its best-ever shape, with the UK Championship just over a month away.
The 29-year-old Australian left-hander is full of confidence after winning his second Players Tour Championship title of the year, seeing off Judd Trump 4-1 in the final of PTC eight in Ireland.
That double success has been enough for Robertson to warn the rest of the snooker world that he is now better than ever.
He said: "Last season I was crashing out in the first or second round of most of the PTC events, so it's great to have won a couple now. My form is looking good with the UK Championship and The Masters coming up.
"I've practised harder than ever this season and I am very solid. The player who won the world title is gone and I'm a much better player now."
Robertson's latest victory saw him move to the top of the PTC rankings, overtaking Ronnie O'Sullivan, with Trump back in third place.
In the world rankings Robertson currently lies fourth, with Mark Selby top of the pile, Mark Williams second and reigning world champion John Higgins third.
Higgins is 1213.00 to retain his world crown in 2012, with Robertson 1213.00 to win a second title in three years.
