People were saying on social media, 'He's going out too much' - I got judged. That was demoralising.

When people are sat quietly for 20-25 minutes per frame, they should be allowed to let their hair down at the end of it.

The crowd should be allowed to chant perhaps, or get some music playing.

If ever I am the underdog I seem to play well and whenever I am the favourite I put too much pressure on myself.

The way I play will change things, there will be a lot more attacking snooker in the future.

People aren't allowed to be themselves in snooker.

I love the game.

I just want to enjoy myself and have fun.

Some shots people won't think are right but I want to give the crowd a good show and get new people into the sport.

It's all about practice and more practice. Travel to tournaments, play in them, watch other players.

I started playing on a tiny table when I was 3 and then started playing properly when I was 10 or 11.

I take no positives from losing.

You don't want to get to 40, 45 and not have won the world title.

Even when I do miss easy balls I feel I can come back.

When you're not sleeping, you're not thinking straight.

Being the favourite is a help.

When people tip you, a lot put themselves under pressure but I use it as an advantage.

I've tried to be more mature and my mindset is a lot different now.

It has sunk into my head that I want to be winning four or five tournaments a season.

I have always wanted to live my life as well as playing snooker.

It is very important not to try too hard because in the past I think I have done that.

I am trying to be a lot more careful - and to not miss easy balls.

My eyesight had always been good but at school I went swimming one day and the chlorine affected me badly. I was almost blinded for two weeks and from there things deteriorated. Then at the World Championship in 2007 I realised I couldn't see the back of the pocket. It was one big blur. My first two seasons as a pro it was dreadful.

I would love to bring it up-to-date and get some more people interested in snooker.
