Ronnie O'Sullivan equals Stephen Hendry century record

Ronnie O'Sullivan has equalled Stephen Hendry's record of 775 centuries during his victory over Ricky Walden at The Masters.

The 39-year-old hit hundreds in the sixth and 10th frames as he booked his place in the quarter-finals at Alexandra Palace with a 6-4 win.

"I could have had it earlier on," O'Sullivan told BBC Sport. "You start to make silly mistakes when you are chasing a record. I scraped over the line."

O'Sullivan will now face Marco Fu for a place in last four of the tournament.
