I don't have a problem with that quote being included as long as it's presented in that context i.e. a quote by an organisation, but with a couple of caveats:  it follows the Ronnie O'Sullivan format where only his achievements are presented in the introductory paragraph, and his standing in the game is included in the second paragraph.  Also if we are using worldsnooker profiles as the criteria O'Sullivan's should be updated to say he is "snooker's most naturally gifted player".
