On March 1, 2022, Beijing time, the Snooker Welsh Open has begun, but the discussion about the Final of the European Masters is still ongoing, and the famous Jimmy White said that the result of the match is too incredible, hussein Wafi believes that this is the biggest cold in snooker history, because Fan Zhengyi did not win much before, but this time he defeated O'Sullivan in the final.
To sum up, experts in the field of snooker believe that Fan Zhengyi can win the championship, mainly including two reasons. First of all, Fan Zhengyi did improve, Jimmy White mentioned that a certain snooker academy suddenly gave birth to three champions (Zhao Xintong, Yan Bingtao, Fan Zhengyi), they trained together, inspired each other, when Fan Zhengyi saw his partner win the championship, he would also have such an idea, and his confidence would become more and more sufficient.
Second, some experts agree with Fan That O'Sullivan is not playing very well. Regarding O'Sullivan's performance, many experts believe that in addition to his dysfunctional performance at the technical level, his mentality is also a little anxious. This was followed by a controversial scene in the eighth inning, when O'Sullivan was 3-4 behind and he was attacking and stopped to complain to the photographer next to him.
O'Sullivan told the referee: Either I go or he goes. In O'Sullivan's view, the photographer had an influence on him, and O'Sullivan also gave a solution, taking a tripod and fixing it in place. In the end, after the referee communicated on the spot, the dispute was resolved, and O'Sullivan continued to play, chasing the score to 4 draws.
McManus supported O'Sullivan's complaint: I can understand what he means, and when you're ready to hit the ball while the photographer constantly adjusts the position, it can be irritating. There are also people who think that O'Sullivan is fine, basically meaning that the photographer has shot a lot of snooker games, he knows how to perform, O'Sullivan's way of dealing with it is very funny, he seems to be a little grumpy.
In fact, O'Sullivan asked questions during the game, rather than saying it after the game, and some people accused O'Sullivan of not being able to afford to lose, which is indeed strange. What has O'Sullivan always said, solving the problem on the spot, will he defend himself after the game? Rarely, the final has been over for some time, but O'Sullivan has remained silent and started preparing for the Welsh Open.
Fan Zhengyi's agent Shi Yuanyuan served as the on-site interpreter, especially reminding Fan Zhengyi to thank O'Sullivan, although Fan Zhengyi did not say something, but Shi Yuanyuan played on the spot, thanks to O'Sullivan, in the process of Zhao Xintong, Yan Bingtao, Fan Zhengyi's growth process, O'Sullivan helped them a lot. Shi Yuanyuan concluded with one sentence: O'Sullivan is very generous to Chinese players. After the game, O'Sullivan really did not make excuses, and gave most of the praise to Fan Zhengyi and several other Chinese players, and O'Sullivan really deserved applause.
Everyone may not know much about Shi Yuanyuan, the daily chores of zhao xintong, Yan Bingtao, Fan Zhengyi and other players are taken care of by Shi Yuanyuan, and these players also have her share of credit behind winning the championship. Therefore, her thank-you to O'Sullivan on the spot, of course, is from the heart, and this statement is also very weighty.
Either way, O'Sullivan is very happy with the progress of the Chinese players and he understands that this is a good thing for Snooker. Moreover, O'Sullivan loves Chinese culture and Chinese, he will definitely help the young Chinese players, and look forward to the early restart of the snooker pro game in China!
