Beijing time on January 19 news, snooker Champions League Group 6, Ding Junhui stopped in the top 4. For Ding Junhui now, it is indeed far less than the peak period. Ding Junhui said, "I found out the training videos from 2003 and 2004 and studied with Ding Junhui in those two years." ”
Ding Junhui was born in 1987, and in 2002, at the age of 15, Ding Junhui was a fledgling and won the Asian Championship, becoming China's youngest Asian champion. In the same year's Asian Games, Ding Junhui won the gold medal at the Asian Games.
In 2003, at the age of 16, Ding Junhui was already no. 1 in China, when he beat the world's No. 1 Mark Williams twice. In 2004, Ding Junhui took a wild card to participate in the Masters, eliminating Joe Perry, who was then 16th in the world, in the first round. It can be said that 2003 and 2004 were Ding Junhui's rising period, when he began to emerge.
Today, Ding Junhui is in a sluggish state, and may indeed be inferior to his self 18 years ago. In the just-concluded Champions League, Ding Junhui first won 4 wins and 2 losses in the round robin tournament to advance to the top 4, but unfortunately, facing Gould, Ding Junhui lost 2-3 and stopped in the top 4. Finally, in the 6th group, Yan Bingtao became the champion.
Judging from Ding Junhui's words, he is still very relaxed, even if the results are not good, he can easily face it.
After Ding Junhui spoke, most of the fans supported him, "When I was in the first grade of primary school, I watched your game on TV, and I missed it!" "Ding Junhui is the founding father of China Snooker and will always support it!"
There are also fans who remind Ding Junhui, "The only way for professional players to maintain their status is to maintain their enthusiasm for the game, and it is always taboo to stay away from the field for too long." I hope Ding can realize this, the training hall and the arena are not the same after all, taking advantage of the fact that you are not so old, hurry up and find the you who used to be! ”
Ding Junhui will soon have a match, the 2022 snooker single time limit will be played from January 20 to 22, Ding Junhui's first round opponent is Barry Hawkins , the masters runner-up, the top player in excellent form.
