Robert Milkins admits reason behind ‘terrible’ season and ‘disgusting’ form Robert Milkins says his season so far has been ‘terrible’ and his break-building ‘disgusting’ which he simply puts down to a lack of effort on the practice table.
Milkins may be lacking some confidence but he has not given up on himself, still believing that when he puts in the hours and finds some form he is capable of climbing back into the top 20 in the world.
The 48-year-old has big tournaments coming up, starting with the German Masters next week, so there is time to turn things around, but he knows he needs to put the work in.
It was only last year that the Milkman arrived at the Crucible as a seeded player, thanks to his memorable win at the 2023 Welsh Open.
‘I know I’m safe to stay on tour and I just know that if I put the time in then next year will take care of itself,’ he said.
