Snooker Sports has not had an important game in the past due to the schedule, and with the end of the New Year's Day festival, it has officially entered the 2022 season, looking back at the entire 2021 season of the Chinese snooker army can be described as bringing many surprises.
Throughout the 2021 season, the number of domestic professional qualifiers in the entire snooker season has reached a record high, and many outstanding young players have emerged, Wu Yize, who is under 18 years old, has made fans shine, and Wu Anyi in Hong Kong has become the first female player in China to obtain professional qualifications.
Of course, if you want to single out the two best players, then Yan Bingtao and Zhao Xintong will definitely be well-deservedly selected, and these two new generation young players of China's snooker have created honors belonging to domestic snooker in the past year.
In January 2021, yan Bingtao, who was only twenty years old, reached the final in the Masters, one of the three major competitions, and defeated the best player in history, John Higgins, on the stage of the final, becoming the first post-00s champion of the competition.
In December 2021, Zhao Xintong, who was only 24 years old, reached the final of the British Championship in a state of unanimous disapproval from the outside world, and staged an extremely gorgeous performance in the final to defeat Brechel, who was also a post-95, to win his first ranking championship and break a number of records.
The performance of the two new generation players also made fans ecstatic, CCTV News in the selection of 2021 domestic top 10 sports deeds, Zhao Xintong and Yan Bingtao also with their outstanding performance strong selection, CCTV is more publicly praised, becoming one of the top 10 domestic sports news in 2021.
The emergence of more and more young generals such as Yan Bingtao and Zhao Xintong also announced that domestic snooker is in an era of new and old alternating, and in the case of Ding Junhui, Fu Jiajun and many other veterans whose strength continues to decline with age, these young generals have undoubtedly become the hope of domestic snooker in the future.
But it does not mean that these new generation of young players already have the strength to surpass Ding Junhui or carry the domestic snooker banner, although Ding Junhui's state is fluctuating now, but Ding Junhui has created too many records at their age.
In other words, Ding Junhui's achievements at their age are far more than anyone else's, not to mention that Ding Junhui went to the UK alone almost single-handedly carried forward snooker in China, and Ding Junhui alone deserves the respect of all fans.
However, I believe that Ding Junhui now sees more and more young generals standing up to share the pressure for him, and his heart will certainly be very pleased, after all, he himself can feel the hardships and difficulties along the way of China's snooker.
Finally, I wish all Chinese snooker players in the new season to achieve better and better results in the new season!
