RONNIE O'SULLIVAN will not break the record for the most amount of world titles this year as he was dramatically knocked out in the quarter-finals by Luca Brecel.
The Belgian snooker player overcame the current champion by coming from behind to win 13-10 at the Crucible.
Brecel has to get past impressive youngster Si Jiahui in order to reach the World Snooker Championship finals.
The winner of that semi-final will take on one of Mark Selby or Mark Allen for this year's crown.
