The latest news on February 13, 2022, Beijing time, the world's number four Neil Robertson after the 6-1 elimination of Jimmy Robertson publicly complained about the players' tournament used by the stage problem, because he found that the Curry side elasticity is far stronger than normal. He believes he and Jimmy Robertson performed badly in the semi-finals of the Players Championship, and the problems with the snooker stage are just one of the reasons. Another reason is that the temperature on the field is very low, which has a great impact on the players' performance. In addition to complaining, Robertson firmly believes that his future career path will be very difficult because he is about to enter a new stage of life.
Robertson: We were affected by the table problem
In the second semi-final of the Players' Championship, Neil Robertson and Jimmy Robertson performed very badly, and they even made frequent mistakes. After the game, Neil Robertson explained this. She said: "There's no doubt that we're all affected by the problems at the table. The elasticity of this table is so strong that you have no idea how far a library is. What you want to go is one position, and the position you play out is another, and they may be two feet apart. Do you see what I mean? Normally, it wouldn't have been that far, but in the game, it was like that. It's not just me who said that, Jimmy thought so too after the race. So I say we're affected by the problems at the table. ”
Robertson: The temperature inside the arena was really low
In addition to complaining about problems with the stage of the Players Tournament, Robertson also complained that the temperature inside the stadium was too low, which made the players feel very cold. Robertson said: "The heating of the playing field has a big impact on both the table and the game. I can tell you responsibly that it was really cold inside the arena, and I was like that against O'Sullivan, and I didn't expect it to be the same against Jimmy Robertson, which was really a bit of a breakdown. When the Tour is going to have an event, they have to figure out exactly what they should do. If you can't even figure out the condition of the table, the temperature in the room, then the situation of the game will become very bad. This will not only have an impact on the players, but also bring the audience a bad kind of experience. People pay to watch games for fun, not to come over and be embarrassed. So I think the World Snooker Tour should be more professional when it comes to hosting events. ”
Robertson: The game ahead will be tough
After winning the English Open and Masters, Robertson's goal this season is to win another title. The 40-year-old also previously finished runner-up at the World Grand Prix, so he's happy with his performance so far. Robertson said happily: "In fact, I am satisfied with how I am doing. Objectively speaking, I have entered another stage in my career. In the future, I may have to accept that I can't reach the final very often. So I'll take advantage of the fact that I'm in good shape to get some more titles and accolades, at least not to regret not working hard enough at some point in the future. Yes, I know the days ahead will certainly be tougher. You can't always make it to the finals, but even if I can't get good results and performances in the future, I will try to enjoy the game and the fun. And when I'm in good shape, I just want to take advantage of those opportunities as much as I can. You should do different things at different stages, and if you're in good shape, why would you give up the chance to compete for the title? ”
