8 consecutive wins to win! Zhao Xintong set a record: 3 wins over the world champion, substitute to the top, will be Liang Wenbo

This morning, the snooker Champions League Group 3 came to an end, the British Championship champion Zhao Xintong became the biggest winner, winning a record 8 consecutive wins, during which he defeated world champions Selby and Bingham three times, transformed into a super substitute to unlock the first crown of the New Year, and joined the winner group teacher Liang Wenbo, which also boosted confidence in the upcoming Masters.

Zhao Xintong's previous best record was the top 4 of the ranking tournament, but last year's British Championship was black to the end, overturning Higgins, Lisovsky, Brechel and other famous players, becoming the post-90s who won the first crown of the three major competitions. However, just after breaking the championship drought, Zhao Xintong encountered Waterloo at the World Grand Prix, losing 2-4 in the first round to Gould to stage the 6th round of the new season, and was questioned that the British Championship was short-lived. Zhao Xintong originally did not participate in the Champions League, but after Mark Williams retired, he changed his mind and decided to play, creating a myth of super substitutes reaching the top.

The accuracy of the long platform, the ability to win with one stroke and the psychological quality of not being weak in the face of strength are Zhao Xintong's housekeeping skills, and he has played his strengths to the fullest in the first race of the New Year. In the group stage, Zhao Xintong was full of firepower, defeating all opponents to win 6 consecutive wins, and 3-0 picking out the world's first Selby is a classic. Coming to the semi-finals, Zhao Xintong continued to be strong, winning by 3 strokes and scoring a single shot of 138 points, completing the 100th stroke of his career to break the hundred, and double-killed world champion Bingham in 2 days to enter the final, and played the Chinese derby with Xiao Guodong. In the first 2 innings, Zhao Xintong went smoothly, winning 2 consecutive rounds with 90 points to win match points. Xiao Guodong then bottomed out and rebounded, equalizing with 96 and 95 points. In the decider, Xiao Guodong scored only 1 point to interrupt the attack, and Zhao Xintong started to shoot a single shot of 66 points to end the battle, becoming the final winner.

At this point, Zhao Xintong won the championship with 8 consecutive victories, becoming the best performing player in the Champions League so far, and the New Year debut won the cup, proving that he could get the British Championship with two brushes. He also became the second player to be shortlisted in the winners' group after Liang Wenbo. Xiao Guodong and Lu Ning will join Group 4 to continue the game, followed by Ding Junhui and Yan Bingtao, looking forward to the Chinese players to continue to work hard and create brilliant achievements.
