@Source: bbc.com
All-time greats such as Ronnie O'Sullivan, Mark Selby and Stephen Hendry have won multiple World Championships but failed to retain the title the year after their maiden victory. O'Sullivan won his first in 2001 and went on to win again in 2004, 2008, 2012, 2013, 2020 and 2022. Selby won back-to-back in 2016 and 2017 after his maiden title in 2014. He also won in 2021. The Crucible Theatre's contract to host the event expires in 2027, with discussions around the future venue for the tournament 'ongoing and constructive'. This article is the latest from BBC Sport's Ask Me Anything team.
