On April 23, the Snooker World Championship will enter the 8th matchday competition, in the 2nd round of the game that has ended, the 3-time World Championship champion Mark Williams is in a state of explosion, the offensive end handed over a single shot 6 to break 100 two games of 100 horrible statistics, 13-3 swept Jackson Page, two stages early end of the battle, three consecutive years to reach the Crucible Quarter-finals, according to this state, Uncle Ma is expected to break the 16-stroke Crucifer Single Hundred Record held by Hendry. Maguire and O'Sullivan led Zhao Xintong and Allen by a huge margin of 11-5, 12-4 respectively, and Yan Bingtao and Selby drew 4-4.
On matchday 8, Yan Bingtao and Selby will decide the winner and loser, zhao Xintong and O'Sullivan's match will also produce results, and the number one winner Robertson and Trump will appear one after another!
Yan Bingtao and Selby played a 4-4 draw in the first stage, the two sides fought on the defensive end, Yan Bingtao did not fall behind at the defensive end, forcing Selby to make mistakes many times, so as to get the opportunity to reverse a single set, but in the offensive end, especially in the far stage, the performance was unsatisfactory, if the 2nd stage Yan Bingtao can improve in the long stage and maintain the defensive success rate of the 1st stage, then the 2nd stage is possible to drag the Sai master or even lead the Sai master, and the 3rd stage will complete the kill. According to the schedule, the two sides will continue the second stage of the match at 17:00 tonight, with a grand showdown at 2 a.m. the next day.
Robertson and Trump will hit the tables against Lisovsky and McGill, respectively. Personally, I think that according to the performance of the 4 people in the first round, Lisovsky is very difficult to beat Robertson, and his psychological resistance ability is a great shortcoming, even against Stevens, a veteran who has long withdrawn from the front line, in the second half of the decisive stage is also nervous that even normal batting is difficult to complete, how to compete with Robertson in such a performance; and Trump is in a very poor state, if it is not a worse opponent, it is difficult for Xiaote to advance, so if the second round continues the bad state of the first round, then McGill may have a certain chance.
In addition, the two matches of Zhao Xintong and O'Sullivan produced results, and the suspense of victory and defeat is not big, just watch Zhao Xintong's final performance in Crucible.
