    "Then I just bought the wrong pair and they were bashing my feet up. I had to take them off. I couldn't wear them. They said I couldn't play in my socks - I didn't want to play in my socks. But didn't want to play in those shoes either!

    Victorious Ronnie O'Sullivan talking to BBC Two after his 10-3 win against Craig Steadman: "I'm never thinking about just getting over the line.

    On facing either Mark Williams or Matthew Stevens in the second-round: "It's too early to say which one I'll be playing - it is not like Matthew has played out of his skin. Mark will come out fighting and draw on his experiences. The Welsh never give in!"
