On January 6, 2022, Beijing time, the snooker Elders Championship ended the second matchday competition, and the quarterfinals were officially born. Stephen Hendry made the finale as he defeated Barry Pinches 3-2 to secure the final eight. In this way, the two world champions will successfully meet, and Stephen Hendry and Ken Dahdi will compete for a place in the final four.
Sixteen meritorious veterans participated in the Tournament, and on the first match day, Jimmy White, Ken Dahadi, Peter Lanes and John Palot took the lead in advancing to the quarterfinals. On matchday 2, a number of active professionals, including veteran World Championship champion David Leary, one of the most successful players in snooker history, Hendry and Barry Pinches, will be on the run for the quarter-finals.
Playing five innings in his first game, Joe Johnson narrowly beat Rod Lawler 3-2 to advance to the quarterfinals. Jowhar then swept Cliff Soborn 3-0. Veteran World Championship champion David Leary was in hot form as he easily eliminated Philip Williams 3-0. Although David Leary is not as famous as Hendry, Jimmy White, ken Dahdi, he is definitely a favorite to win this year's Senior Britain Championship. After all, David Liri has played trump many times this season and has also participated in the Championship Invitational Tournament, and through high-level competitions, David Liri has gradually improved.
Stephen Hendry made the finale against active pro Barry Pinches, which was also a strong conversation. The two played five innings, and Hendry seized his chance in the decider to beat his opponent 3-2 and advance to the quarterfinals. Since returning to the professional arena, Hendry has not achieved too good results, and his competitiveness has greatly reduced his competitiveness for a long time, and he needs more games to find his feel, and the Elder England Championship is a good opportunity for him to find his form.
At this point, the quarter-finals of the British Championship were officially born, and the quarter-final matches were as follows: Peter Lanes vs Johar, Joe Johnson vs David Leary, Jimmy White vs John Parlot, Stephen Hendry vs Ken Dahdi. Obviously, the focus battle is Hendry vs. Ken Dahdi, the conversation between the two world champions, which is exciting. The two are not as competitive and competitive as before, and in comparison, Ken Dahdi, who has been active in the professional arena, may be in better shape, but the key to victory or defeat is to play on the spot.
According to the schedule, the quarter-finals were split into two slots, with Peter Lanes vs Johar on January 6 at 20pm, followed by Joe Johnson vs David Leary. At 3 a.m. on Jan. 7, Jimmy White vs John Palot, followed by Stephen Hendry vs Ken Dahdi. I hope that several veterans can play at their best level and dedicate wonderful competitions!
