At the tender age of 46, Ronnie O'Sullivan continues to shock the snooker community.
O'Sullivan cruised into round two of the Scottish Open, seeing off Bai Langning 4-0.
What was particularly astonishing about this short-lived game, was the Wordsley man's break of 118 in the second frame - which took him only three minutes and 34 seconds!

The World-Number-One reached the three-figure tally in just three seconds short of the fastest-ever televised century, which was set by Tony Drago 26 years ago.
O'Sullivan, a seven-time World Champion, has been in scintillating form of late and will now face Ben Wollaston in the last 64.
Speaking after his marvellous achievement, the Englishman was in his typically candid form: "I just felt like I needed to speed up a bit and enjoy it.
"Edinburgh is a nice city. Got some nice runs sorted out and I'll come out and enjoy my time here."
Later this evening, former World Champion Ken Doherty is in action.
The Dubliner faces off against Gary Wilson in first-round action from 8 pm.
