"He was unlucky to lose in the semi-finals last year and if I had lost to anybody else I would be a bit sore but the snooker gods did the right thing today," O'Sullivan told the BBC. "I am pleased I was able to focus and compete. But you can't pot anything and it wasn't meant to be."McGill, who lost a heartbreaking semi-final to Kyren Wilson in 2020's delayed world championship when he was just one frame from winning, said:"I played so well this morning and Ronnie just played like Ronnie tonight and I didn't step up.
