    Ronnie O'Sullivan has withdrawn from this week's Welsh Open in Llandudno.

    The seven-time world champion was expected to return to competition in north Wales having missed the German Masters, the Masters and matches in the Championship League.

    O'Sullivan, 49, was due to play in the first round against Jamie Clarke on Tuesday afternoon.

    Tournament organisers World Snooker Tour gave no reason for O'Sullivan's withdrawal but confirmed Wales' Clarke would receive a bye into round two.

    Englishman O'Sullivan has now withdrawn from six ranking tournaments this season.

    His next event is expected to be the World Open in Yushan, China at the end of this month.
