On April 10, 2022, Beijing time, the snooker World Championship ended on the 6th day of qualifying, and China's youngster Pang Junxu received two good news, first of all, he created a record for the highest score in his career, followed by the successful relegation, and Pang Junxu, who won the best newcomer last season, is steadily advancing.
On matchday 6, the last four matches of the second round of the qualifying round were first played, and the most eye-catching performance was undoubtedly the youngster Pang Junxu. Last season, Pang Junxu defeated the seeded players many times to win the Best Newcomer Award of the Season, and is a young player with great potential.
This season, Pang Junxu's performance is not as good as last season, and the relegation pressure is relatively large. However, in the second round of the qualifying round, Pang Junxu won 6-1 against Ajabu, a victory that allowed Pang Junxu to successfully relegate, it can be said that Pang Junxu completed an important goal through the World Championships, and can continue to compete in professional competitions next season.
Facing Ajab's match, Pang Junxu quickly entered the form, scoring a single shot of 144 points in the first set, which is the highest single score so far in the qualifying round, and Pang Junxu is expected to enjoy the highest single score bonus of 15,000 pounds. In addition, the single shot 144 points is also the highest single score in Pang Junxu's career, creating a record while successfully relegating, congratulations to Pang Junxu.
Next, Pang Junxu will face a huge test. In the third round of the qualifiers, his opponent was former world champion Graeme Dort, although the opponent's competitive status was not as good as before, but for Pang Junxu, the experienced Graeme Dort was of course a difficult bone to gnaw. If you pass the third round, the decider round will be against the winner between Gary Wilson and Jamie Clark, Pang Junxu is more difficult to break through, only to let go.
So far, there are 11 Chinese players left in the qualifiers, with Lu Haotian and Zhou Yuelong advancing to the decider first, with Lu Haotian's opponent being Dominique Dale and Zhou Yuelong's opponent Stephen Maguire.
