On April 24, the Snooker World Championship will enter the 9th match day, and in the already concluded second round of matches, mainland teenager Yan Bingtao performed well, eliminating defending champion Selby 13-10 after 23 innings to reach the quarterfinals of the World Championship for the first time in his career. In addition, Williams, Maguire and O'Sullivan have also advanced to the quarter-finals, and the two major champions Robertson and Trump have drawn 4-4 with Lisowski and McGill, two post-90s stars, respectively, and the 9th matchday four will compete for the second leg. In addition, Higgins and Wilson are about to appear against Thailand's famous Sankam and world champion Bingham.
Thailand's famous players fight Higgins
Sancam beat Brechel in the first round to tie his best record in Crucible, this time will rush to the top 8 of the World Championship, Higgins eliminated Thailand's brother Tachaia in the first round, and the second round of consecutive matches against the Thais, San kamm intends to avenge Tachaia. It should be pointed out that the two sides have a record of 7 encounters, And Sancham has won 3 of them and won the most recent meeting between the two, and the first round of this year's German Masters qualifiers swept Higgins 5-2, which is not obviously inferior. But these 7 clashes are all in short-term games, Higgins is good at the world championship long-term game, the first round is to stage the first half-time reverse since the beginning of the game, looking forward to the two duels.
Turnip Little Tepan pulled the score open
Robertson is the number one favorite to win the world championship, and Trump is certainly one of the favorites, but the two faced the same post-90s players, and did not pull the score in the first leg, and even fell behind at one point! Robertson started 2-4 behind and Trump started 1-3 behind, but both equalized before the end of the first eight innings, and then the two looked forward to pulling the score in Stage 2, otherwise the outcome would become unpredictable, because McGill and Lissovsky both had some strength. On the 9th matchday, the above 4 matches will end the 2nd stage of the match, this match day will not produce the top 8 results, how the two stages progress, let's wait and see.
