9:8 reverse kill veteran Zheng Kai, "Qiao's Cup" 2021 Chinese Billiards Masters (Hangzhou Station), 17-year-old Shen Shenyi after experiencing the confusion of the first game, with a winning posture to reach the top 64, in the back wave of endless Chinese platform, hard to rush, towards the year-end finals launched an impact.
In the first game of the first stage, Shen Shenyi played an abnormal opponent and fell to the defeat, just when everyone thought that his poor performance would encounter a "round trip", he did not expect that he was more and more frustrated and courageous, in the just-concluded showdown with veteran Zheng Kai, the start was 0:4 behind, all the way downwind, stabilized the mentality at a critical moment, Sheng Sheng chased the score to 8:8 double match point, the decisive game was blown up, 9:8 reverse the kill, and there was a thrill to successfully advance to the third stage.
"There were a few small games before the Masters, they were not played very well, they were a bit affected, which led to the loss of the first game, but this will not have any impact on the later games, playing the Masters will have a lot of motivation, and the more you play, the more confident you will be!"
In August last year, 16-year-old Shen Shenyi left his hometown of Zhejiang and went north alone, signing with Qiao's billiards dream team and officially starting the Chinese billiards journey, in his eyes, only sweat cast trophies, no opportunistic success. "If there is a place to practice, I will practice for 6 or 7 hours a day, and my biggest opponent now is myself, first practice the basic skills!"
Now that he has been more than a year old and returned to his hometown again, Shen Shenyi is still working hard as before, and his achievements have also made a qualitative leap. "Recently I have been playing in the golf room in Hangzhou, and my friends around me are very recognized by the Masters, and they all say that they will definitely participate in the next opportunity, which gives me greater confidence to a large extent, and I feel that I must play well at the doorstep!"
Although this "seedling" has achieved its best result so far in the Final 16 of the Masters, it is undeniable that he is a treasure boy. If you have followed his game, you will find that in the game, he has a firm gaze, is serious and careful, and is not impatient. Leave quietly after the game, no noise, no panic or busyness.
"I'm still very confident about reaching the finals, and although the Classic is very difficult and very difficult to play, I'm confident I have this chance!"
Excellent people are always trying to cross the mountains, not because they know in advance that the end of the road is applause, but because they "always want to see themselves who have worked hard to the end." I believe that Shen Shenyi, who has been working hard, will continue to overcome his own difficulties, actively adjust his mentality, and go to a higher place to appreciate the future scenery.
