The latest news on April 24, 2022, Beijing time, three-time world champion Mark Williams once again attacked Hendry who opposed their training together when he was training with his friend and training partner Jackson Page before the World Championships. Mark Williams beat his beloved Paige 13-3 in the second round of the World Championships and managed to reach the quarter-finals in Crucible, a great victory for Mark Williams. The performance of the six-shot breaker also allowed Williams to find his best form, but the rumors from the outside world still made him angry.
Williams again scolded Hendry as an idiot
After defeating Page, Williams again lashed out at the snooker legend Hendry, who angrily called him an idiot and would only talk nonsense. And the reason for all this comes from Hendry's insistence that Page shouldn't be training with Mark Williams before the game. Before the focus battle between Williams and Page, Hendry had advised Page to stay away from players who were more experienced than himself, because he felt that it could put a lot of psychological pressure on Page. In response to Hendry's controversial remarks, Williams lashed out on social media, more clearly pointing his finger directly at the seven World Championships. So far, Hendry has not spoken out again about the incident.
WILLIAMS: I didn't want to put pressure on Page
After successfully qualifying, Williams trained again. Speaking about his training with Page, Williams said: "I don't think there's anything wrong with that, I've seen other people say I want to go into Page's brain and bring him stress or something like that. If anyone thinks so, then all I can say is that he's an idiot. If you think I want to win a game by putting pressure on Page's brain, you're an idiot! I've won with this score before and I'm ecstatic about my win, but I love that you don't want to see that score. Obviously, I wanted to beat him, but there were a few times when I was really trying to persuade him to go to rest a few times because I was really leading too much and I didn't want the game to end like that. I lost a game there last year, so I know what it's like. I think it's a good lesson and you have to recover from it. ”
White: Williams deserved to win
Mark Williams, a three-time world champion who won at the 2000, 2003 and 2018 World Championships at Sheffield, now looks back at his best. It's clear that it also impressed European sports expert Jimmy White. White said: "I've seen him play a lot of evenly matched races today and this season. He lost in the decider in five or so games, including the one to Robertson. But his performance of breaking the hundred is part of his brilliance. He's performing something exciting, he's acting so naturally, so fluidly, so ornamental. He's already won three world titles, but he doesn't think he'll win another one. In fact, he has nothing to prove. Poor Jackson Page didn't do anything wrong, he just didn't have a chance. At the start of the match, he was offered a 1:33 odds of winning the game, and some people familiar with the matter supported his victory. But he hasn't turned the game into a win this season, even though he's playing well! Judging by the current state, Williams is the one who should win the game. ”
