RONNIE O’SULLIVAN produced an “answer nobody was expecting” as he named the most famous person in his phone contacts.
Last year’s winner is preparing to defend his title and make history with a record-breaking eighth World Snooker Championship crown this month.
The 47-year-old overcame Judd Trump in last year’s final and equaled Stephan Hendry’s modern-day record.
And he made the ideal start to this year’s tournament at the weekend as held off qualifier Pang Junxu to seal a 10-7 victory.
He will now face Ding Junhui or Hossein Vafaei in the second round.
As part of the media duties for the event, O’Sullivan and his fellow snooker stars took part in a Tik Tok Q&A where they were asked about the biggest celebrity they had as a phone contact.
Names such as football legend Michael Owen and snooker great Steve Davis were touted – but O’Sullivan blew everyone away with his response.
“The Rocket” surprised viewers by naming former US President Barack Obama as his.
And viewers of the clip absolutely loved it judging by the comments.
One wrote: “Ronnie lad blowing the opposition out of the water.”

Another commented: “Ronnie at the end Barack Obama the clear winner.”
A fellow fan said: “Ronnie top trumps the lot of ‘em!”
As another asked along with a laughing emoji: “Why does he have Obama’s number?”
And another simply said: “The answer nobody was expecting.”
