Ronnie O'Sullivan crashed out of the English Open in the third round after a comprehensive 4-1 defeat to Matthew Stevens.
The Essex cueman struggled for form against the 43-year-old Welshman, who wrapped up a victory with a break of 116.
It was a further setback for O'Sullivan since he won his sixth world title in August, having exited at the first-round stage of the European Masters.
