On April 10, 2022, Beijing time, the Snooker World Championship entered the 7th day of qualifying, and Ding Junhui made his debut against his good friend Tian Pengfei. In addition, Fan Zhengyi, who won the ranking championship this season, will also appear against Chris Walkerlin. On this competition day, a number of powerful players appeared, and the qualification round entered a white-hot stage.
The Chinese players achieved average results on the 6th match day, with 10 players playing, 4 advancing, and Lu Ning, Li Xing, Zhang Anda, Zhang Jiankang, Si Jiahui and Wu Yize out, which was a big blow.
On the 7th matchday, three more Chinese players appeared, and they were all powerful factions, namely Ding Junhui, Tian Pengfei and Fan Zhengyi. At the end of the season, Ding Junhui was in good shape, he achieved good results at the Turkish Masters and the Gibraltar Open, and his self-confidence was improved. Unfortunately, Ding Junhui's debut opponent is Tian Pengfei, which is a dialogue between good friends, which is somewhat cruel.
To put it simply, at least one Chinese player on matchday 7 ended the World Championship journey early, and Ding Junhui was more optimistic, but whether he could quickly enter the competition state was also a major attraction, after all, Tian Pengfei was not a soft persimmon. The match will be played at 2:30 a.m. Beijing time on April 11.
Fan Zhengyi, who has won the ranking championship this season, also made his debut, the opponent is Chris Walkerlin, from the recent state, Fan Zhengyi has the upper hand, but Chris Walkerlin is a more tenacious player, Fan Zhengyi can not be taken lightly. The match will be played at 20:30 Beijing time on April 10, and I wish Fan Zhengyi good luck.
On this matchday, almost every match was a strong conversation, in addition to the Chinese players' matches, jack Jones vs. Tachaia, Tom Ford vs. Michael Holt, David Gilbert vs. Roy McLeod, Jimmy Robertson vs. Oliver Lanes, and Martin Gould vs. Ashley Hjrgil.
We'll also focus on Kurt Maflin vs David Lilly, as the winner of this match will be the winner between Ding Junhui and Tian Pengfei in the final round of qualifying, and the Chinese players are very likely to get this regular spot!
