Ronnie OSullivan has told Judd Trump he must win the Betfred World Championship in the next three years or he may never get his hands on the trophy. Five-time champion OSullivan landed his first Crucible title at the age of 25 in 2001, at the ninth time of trying, before making it a regular habit.He considers 26-year-old Trump well equipped to mount a serious challenge for snookers premier silverware over the next 17 days in Sheffield. But OSullivan suspects the pressure will only increase if Trump, who was runner-up to John Higgins in 2011, misses out this year.Asked if Trump has what it takes, OSullivan said: Absolutely. Hes 26 and hes at the prime age now to push on, but if hes going to make it happen hes got to make it happen in the next two or three years. Trump won the China Open en route to the Crucible last year Once you go into your thirties and havent won the world title, and then theres a new batch of young players coming through from China, from here, there and everywhere, you can start to think that maybe I might not.The pressure gets more and more and sometimes its not about the best player who wins this tournament, its the guy who can hold himself together and play solid snooker.Its not always about playing brilliant match after brilliant match, its about steadying the ship sometimes and biding your time and pouncing. Stuart Bingham edged out Trump in last years semi-final While OSullivan begins against David Gilbert on Sunday, Bristol-born Trump must wait until Wednesday to tackle Liang Wenbo, the Chinese player who beat him at the UK Championship in December.World No 5 Trump won the China Open at the start of April, just as he did before his run to his first Crucible final. He was a semi-finalist at the Crucible last year, losing to eventual champion Stuart Bingham, and his desire to take the title is immense. Liang Wenbo first up for Trump this year Ive got enough experience now, he said. Theres no reason anymore why I shouldnt be winning here. Im not too young, Its not come too early now, so theres no more excuses. Ive had my five or 10 years of growing up.Ronnie won it when he was 25, which is quite old for someone that good, so if I win it this year or next year Im still not far behind him and hes the greatest player ever.Im still young but Ive got a lot of experience that people my age shouldnt really have so I need to use that now.
