On February 14, Beijing time, the snooker Players Championship champion was decided, and Neil Robertson defeated Barry Hawkins 10-5 to win the cup, which was Neil Robertson's second ranking championship of the season, the third championship (plus the Masters championship), and the 22nd ranking championship of his career.
This season, Neil Robertson is definitely the best player, arguably one of them! England Open final 9-8 defeat higgins, snooker Masters final 10-4 victory over Barry Hawkins, this morning's players championship final 10-6 again beat Barry Hawkins, the number of ranking champions rose to 22, the number of three major tournament champions reached 6, constantly breaking themselves, breaking their own, breaking their personal records. After this year's Players Championship, the ranking tournament historical championship list has been updated! Neil Robertson has tied Trump to 6th all-time!
The first in history is O'Sullivan, with 38 crowns; the second in history is billiards emperor Hendry, with 36 crowns; the third is Higgins, with 31 crowns; the fourth, Davis, with 28 crowns; the fifth, Mark Williams, 24 crowns; Neil Robertson is tied for Trump, tied for 6th in history with 22 ranking championships; Selby is 8th with 20 titles; Ding Junhui is still ninth with 14 titles; Jimmy White, 10 crowns, tenth.
The same as the post-80s celebrity, the same as one of the five tigers after the 80s, when Neil Robertson, Trump, Selby you chased me, our Ding Junhui was stagnant, and could only sit helplessly to watch the five tigers chase me. Once, among the five tigers after the 80s, Ding Junhui was the best, and now, Ding Junhui has long been thrown away! Of course, Ding Junhui is not at the bottom, and Murphy's number of ranking champions is still in single digits, but Murphy has the honor of snooker Grand Slam.
