Neil Robertson credits golf for snooker success

Snooker player Neil Robertson has shared that a new hobby has helped him improve his game. The Australian star recently won the World Grand Prix in Hong Kong, defeating Stuart Bingham 10-0 in the final. This victory has boosted his confidence and ranking in the sport. Before this win, Robertson struggled with his performance, losing 10 out of his last 16 matches. He even missed qualifying for the previous year's World Championship, which left him outside the top 16 rankings. However, after his strong performance in the World Grand Prix, he has climbed to 11th place and secured a spot in this year's Championship. Robertson credits his recent success to taking up golf. He believes that playing golf has provided him with a healthier way to spend his time compared to gaming. He also joked that he needs to be careful not to let his wife become a "golf widow" as he is enjoying the sport so much. Looking back on his journey, Robertson expressed pride in where he is now. He feels that his hard work is paying off, and playing golf has been a significant part of that. As the World Championship approaches, he seems ready to capitalize on his recent success.
