At present, the World Championship, the most important event of the year, is in full swing. After two rounds of qualifying, Ding Junhui, who chinese fans are most looking forward to, also appeared. In the third round of the qualifiers, Ding Junhui staged a Chinese derby with another Chinese star, Tian Pengfei. In the end, although the highly skilled Ding Junhui was in danger of being overturned at the bottom, he still laughed to the end and entered the fourth round of the qualifiers. In addition to this good news, Ding Junhui also got a good news, which can be said to be a double happiness at the door. Some fans said it was no wonder that Ding Junhui was able to rank 9th in the world championship winning favourites, becoming the only player who needed to start from the qualifiers. Perhaps, a Chinese brother may stage a scene from 6 years ago, starting from the qualifiers and finally reaching the final.
Due to the downturn in the past two seasons, China's brother Ding Junhui's world ranking has fallen from the top 16 in the world to about 30 today. Therefore, according to the rules, if Ding Junhui wants to participate in the main round of the World Championships, he must start from the third round of the qualification round and must win two consecutive victories to enter the main competition. But even if it is to start from the qualifiers, Ding Junhui's strength is still recognized by the world snooker community. Therefore, he suppressed many of the world's top 16 players and ranked 9th in the championship list. This is actually equivalent to the current situation of China's snooker, although young players such as Zhao Xintong and Yan Bingtao have performed well, but when it comes to Chinese snooker, Ding Junhui is still the first to think, and he is still a brother of Chinese snooker. After all, the 14 championships were not picked up, but won by their own strength.
In the third round of the World Championships, Ding Junhui met Tian Pengfei. Tian Pengfei is also a famous Chinese snooker player, but the recent situation has not been good, and he is currently fighting for relegation. If you lose in the third round of qualifying, it is basically certain that you will lose your professional qualification. But he was unlucky to meet Ding Junhui in this round, and Ding Junhui, who had recovered a lot this season, although he once gave Tian Peng a chance in this game, Ding Junhui, who was obviously stronger, finally laughed to the end.
In this game, Tian Pengfei took the lead in the state, scoring a single shot of 70 points in the first inning. However, Ding Junhui started from the second set, won three consecutive sets, and also played two single-shot 50+, with a large score of 3:1, and the two sides entered the half-time break. In the fifth set, Tian Pengfei recovered, played a single 68 points, pulled back a set, and the big score became 2:3. Ding Junhui was obviously in better shape, scoring a single shot of 134 points, winning two consecutive sets and winning the match point with a large score of 5:2.
At this time, Tian Pengfei, who had no way to retreat, played the momentum, played two consecutive 50+, and still won with a continuous clean sheet, saving two match points. However, Ding Junhui did not have a soft hand at the critical moment, played a single shot of 66 points, and won the tenth set. In this way, Ding Junhui eliminated Tian Pengfei with a big score of 6:4 and advanced to the fourth round.
Originally, Ding Junhui's next opponent was Norway's famous Ma Fulin, but what he did not expect was that Ma Fulin gave Ding Junhui a good news. Maflin was eliminated by amateurs in a 1-6 defeat against amateur David Liri. This result, for Ding Junhui, is definitely good news. In this way, his opponent in the fourth round became the 46-year-old veteran, amateur David Leary. David Liri is the champion of the Seniors Tournament, but his current competitive status and strength do have a big gap with Ding Junhui. Therefore, as long as Ding Junhui does not have a particularly unexpected situation, it can basically be said that he is lying in the main game. Ding Junhui, who entered the main competition, is one step closer to his first world championship champion. Bless Ding Junhui and hope that he can make his dream come true and complete the last piece of the puzzle of his perfect career.
