RONNIE O’SULLIVAN has hinted at a major career change and could even juggle TWO jobs when he retires from snooker.
The Rocket is regarded as the greatest of all time after a stellar career on the table.
GettyO’Sullivan has a record 23 Triple Crowns, which includes eight Masters and eight UK Championships.
And he also has the joint-most World Snooker wins with Stephen Hendry, with both on seven.
However, Ronnie has hinted several times at retirement this year after coming up short in a few tournaments.
O’Sullivan has even withdrawn from this weekend’s Wuhan Open following last month’s “embarrassing” English Open exit.
And it appears he already has one eye on a new future job.
Speaking to Virgin Radio, the Rocket admitted he’s love to become a RUNNING coach.
O’Sullivan is a member of Woodford Green Running Club in Essex.
And he wants to get a coaching badge before taking up a role with his running team.

O’Sullivan said: “It’s the best thing, I love it at the running club.
“When I finish playing I think I’ll probably get a coaching badge and try to help out the club with all types of runners.

However, the Rocket admits he would also consider taking a second job by helping budding snooker stars to reach the top.
He added: “I’d like to help a player, I’d love to help a player because there’s load of times in my career that I’ve got to help and it’s transformed my career.
“If I could maybe help another player develop, I think a lot of it is improving your weaknesses.
“A lot of people think they can just pot and break-build, there’s another side to the game you need to develop.
“Also the mental side of it as well. When you’re mentally strong it’s such a tremendous asset to have as a sportsman.”
Inside Ronnie's colourful career
FROM his lightning breaks to blasts at officials, Ronnie O'Sullivan has fired snooker into the spotlight.
The seven-time world champion makes almost as big an impact away from the table as on it.
O’Sullivan has three children – two daughters and a son.
And the Rocket’s on-off relationship with British actress Laila Rouass has also hit the headlines.
He has opened up on battles with his weight and addiction.
While the controversial cueist reckons he wasted NINE YEARS of his career by partying too hard.
Despite being worth £14million, O’Sullivan is renowned for his love of canal boats and snubbing flashy cars.
His rivalry with fellow star Judd Trump has been branded ‘snooker’s greatest feud’.
And Ali Carter had his nose knocked out of joint by the Rocket in their infamous ‘Snotgate’ row.
