At present, the snooker World Championship qualification tournament is in full swing, and the major players are competing for the last 16 places in the main competition. In the first three qualifier rounds that have been conducted, The Chinese snooker players have performed quite well. Five Chinese players have advanced to the final round, including China's snooker brother Ding Junhui. In addition, 19 Chinese players have been eliminated in the first three rounds. However, among the Chinese players who have been eliminated, one player was warned by the beautiful referee on duty for controversial behavior in a match in the third round of the qualifiers.
In the third round of the newly concluded World Snooker Championships, China had 6 players playing. However, the record is not very good, only 2 wins and 4 losses. This result also means that on this match day, only 2 Chinese players advanced to the fourth round, and 4 players had to leave the World Championships. The two players who advanced to the finale were young players Lei Peifan and Yuan Sijun, who eliminated Ussenbach and Ryan Day respectively. Among them, Yuan Sijun's promotion can be described by strong two words, he played three single shots in the game to break the hundred, 126 points, 120 points, 106 points. In the end, he swept Ryan 6-1. Dai, advance to the fourth round. These two young players, plus Ding Junhui, Zhou Yuelong and Lu Haotian, who have previously advanced to the fourth round, so that 5 Chinese players have advanced to the fourth round of the qualification round, impacting the tickets of the main tournament. In addition, young Chinese players Zhao Xintong and Yan Bingtao have directly entered the main competition as seed players.
Among the 19 Chinese players who have been eliminated, one player was not only eliminated, but also warned by the duty beautiful referee for his controversial behavior during the competition. The Chinese player, cao Yupeng, was once the hope star of China's snooker, and at the 2017 Scottish Open, he scored a perfect score of 147, becoming the fourth snooker player in China to score a perfect score. However, because of his subsequent involvement in match-fixing, he was banned from the World Taiwan Federation. In the previous Champions League, it was Cao Yupeng who returned to the professional arena again after a gap of 1202 days. However, after the comeback of Cao Yupeng, his performance is not bright, there is no good performance. It can be seen that he also needs to look for the feeling of the game of yesteryear through more games.
This time in the World Championship qualifiers, Cao Yupeng defeated the Chinese player Lin Shanfeng in the previous round of the competition and advanced to the third round. His opponent in the third round is the 46-year-old veteran Milkins, who is currently in good shape, and before that, he won the Championship at the Gibraltar Open. In fact, fans are not very optimistic about Cao Yupeng, but it is not without a chance to win. However, in the end, Mirkinson was a skilled player, defeating Cao Yupeng 6:3 by a large score to advance to the fourth round.
When the game was in the second set, there was a controversial scene, and it was this controversial scene that led to Cao Yupeng's subsequent warning by the duty beauty referee. In the second set, Cao Yupeng led 43-3 at the time. At this time, Mirkins made the ball, and Cao Yupeng did not solve it twice. At the time of the third time, a scene of controversy occurred. The Chinese player objected to the reset of the on-duty beauty referee Wielickova. Subsequently, the two sides made some representations. However, it is clear that the referee did not listen to Cao Yupeng's opinion and insisted on his own opinion, which also made Cao Yupeng feel very helpless.
Although he accepted it at the time, Cao Yupeng was still very dissatisfied with this reset after walking to the table to check. I saw him directly and angrily pounding the table with his hands, venting his dissatisfaction with the referee. This action was just seen by the referee, so the referee Wielickova directly stepped forward to give a serious warning to Cao Yupeng's behavior. Probably affected by this controversial reset, Cao Yupeng was not in the state at all, and eventually lost the game and was eliminated.
I have to say that Cao Yupeng's behavior on the table is indeed very undeserved. However, questioning the referee on the spot is also a kind of questioning of the World Federation of Taiwan. In order to increase the viewing of the game, the World Taiwan Federation now pushes the beautiful referees Pozlova and Wieliczkova. However, they are good-looking, but their business ability does not seem to be recognized by the players, as can be explained by Cao Yupeng's questioning on the field.
For this controversial behavior of Cao Yupeng, fans and friends, what do you think?
