Both Dort and Liang Wenbo lost in state suppression

Although the course of the two games is not the same, the determining factor in the direction of the game is the state. In the match between Dort and Fan Zhengyi, Dort's state was very sluggish, which made Fan Zhengyi, who was obviously more accurate in a single ball, find a breakthrough in the game. Although the experienced Dot tried to limit Fan Zhengyi by controlling the game, the difference in accuracy made it difficult for him to achieve his goal of reversing the game. And his frequent mistakes also let Fan Zhengyi see the possibility of the final, so Dort just lost in the form and accuracy, and he really did not lose in other aspects. Compared with the match between Dort and Fan Zhengyi, the state confrontation between O'Sullivan and Liang Wenbo is more obvious. Although Liang Wenbo's overall performance is not bad, he still has some spare energy in the face of O'Sullivan, who is now full of firepower. Under the absolute suppression of the state, Liang Wenbo can only rely on O'Sullivan's occasional mistakes to get a few mobile phone meetings. For Liang Wenbo, he has done a good job, but O'Sullivan's excellence has overshadowed his play.
