On April 7, 2022, China's snooker star Liang Wenbo publicly apologized, responded to the World Taiwan Federation ban for the first time, clearly stated that he would not appeal, admitted that he had unshirkable responsibility for this incident, and fully accepted the punishment of the World Taiwan Federation and the Chinese Taiwan Association.
Liang Wenbo introduced that just last year, I clashed with female friends, was sentenced to fines and community labor, caused everyone's heated discussion, brought a negative impact on China's snooker, deeply sorry for this, after the incident, I conducted a deep reflection, fully accepted the criticism of the outside world, at that time it was indeed more impulsive, failed to control emotions, should not use violent means to solve the problem.
Unlike ordinary snooker players, Liang Wenbo is the deputy director, together with Ding Junhui and Tian Pengfei, responsible for the relevant work of China's snooker, he said that when he was established, as a father, a snooker athlete, a public figure with various responsibilities, he should restrain his emotions, avoid making some impulsive behavior, and finally express his sincere apologies to everyone.
The World Federation of Taiwan pointed out that Liang Wenbo has the right to appeal and protect his rights and interests, some fans feel that because of this matter, the ban is still somewhat serious, and support Liang Wenbo to try, but now Liang Wenbo has expressed his position, fully accepts the current punishment results, cooperates with the work of the World Federation of Taiwan, according to the past practice, Liang Wenbo belongs to the good attitude of admitting mistakes, and should be able to reduce the suspension period.
This year, Liang Wenbo's results are good, and the overall performance of the three final four is outstanding, and the single time limit game lost to Hussein. Wafi, lost to Bingham in the Champions League, lost to O'Sullivan at the European Masters, Liang Wenbo once defeated Trump, won the English Open, won the British Championship runner-up, reached the quarterfinals of the World Championships, and now he has been banned from the World Taiwan Federation, when to return to the field is to be determined.
At present, Liang Wenbo is waiting for the notice of the World Federation of Taiwan, he needs to participate in the hearing to determine the specific suspension time, from Liang Wenbo's words, it is not difficult to see that he can accept this result, there is no opinion, I hope that his good attitude of admitting mistakes, can get official recognition, minimize the ban period, while eliminating the adverse impact on China's snooker, and strive to return to the field as soon as possible.
In any case, Liang Wenbo's absence from the World Championships is a major loss for him, he has passed the qualification tournament for two consecutive years, he did not expect to be directly disqualified this year, and whether he can continue to play next season is still unknown, and his career will be affected.
