In the world snooker Welsh Open qualifier, which just ended on February 16, 2022, Beijing time, the youngster Lichtenberg was in a slump, and he did not even play a single 50+ performance, and I finally lost 0-4 to Andrew Paiget and did not qualify for the main tournament. In another match that ended in the same time period, China's Lu Ning successfully advanced to the main tournament with a 4-2 victory over Mark Williams' coach Lee Walker with 57, 68 and 81 points. It is worth mentioning that both games are boring because the progress of the game is relatively slow.
Lichtenberg was swept away and missed the regular tournament
Although Lichtenberg's comprehensive ability is not yet mature, but in terms of his style of play, he still hopes to achieve good results in the future.

Runin eliminated Lee Walker 4-2 and qualified for the main tournament
In the match between Ronin and Lee Walker, the two slow-paced players brought everyone a battle, and although the players' single-shot performance was not bad, the progress of the game was indeed a little too slow.

In the sixth set, Ronin beat Lee Walker 4-2 with a 68-1 performance to advance to the Welsh Open main tournament.
The level of competition in both matches is not very high
For fans, these two games are indeed not spectacular. Not only is the pace of the game slow, but the fluency of the game is also not ideal. In the match between Padget and Lichtenberg, it was more like a showdown between amateurs, and the game was always played on and off. You simply can't see the highlights of professional games, and you can't see the pictures that are full of ornamentation. Of course, the two players, Padge and Lichtenberg, are still at a limited level, but Lichtenberg can do some good work on his abilities, and he may make himself a good player. In the match between Ronin and Lee Walker, the overall strength of these two players is significantly stronger. But their game was also played very badly, With Poor Offensive Continuity and the overall pace being very slow, making people look uncomfortable. And Lee Walker's rhythm and Ronin's rhythm are exactly the same, so although this game is not bad to watch the single shot, it is really not much to watch.
