Yan Bingtao defeated Selby and excited The Chinese snooker. However, as a post-00, Yan Bingtao is still relatively young, so it is a little awkward to respond to some things. For example, when asked by a reporter whether he admired and worshipped Selby, Yan Bingtao thought about it and said: NO... So, the whole place was quiet. After being criticized for being clever, Yan Bingtao said that it was just a joke.
Because it was so similar to Selby's style of play, at the press conference, the reporter asked: "When you started your snooker career a few years ago, did you always admire and admire Selby?" I don't know if Yan Bingtao understands the meaning of English, and after thinking about it for a long time, the response is: No. So, the air suddenly became quiet...
In fact, Selby expressed the highest respect for Yan Bingtao after losing, Yan Bingtao can not worship Selby, but should admire this predecessor, Yan Bingtao has a personality, but is also a good child who respects his predecessors. Therefore, we believe that it is a problem of expression, and Yan Bingtao may have to strengthen his English. Of course, Yan Bingtao can also go out of his own style, no one cares, just win, you are right about everything!
In addition, Yan Bingtao was also criticized for playing small tricks and tricks in the game, because when he hit a coffee ball, he asked the referee to wipe the mother ball during the period, which was rejected. After Yan Bingtao finally "shook a few shots", he finally successfully scored and won the round. Both Jimmy White and McManus said you couldn't do that in the snooker movement.
Yan Bingtao's latest response read: "I chose to let the referee clean up the white ball because I was too nervous. I wanted to adjust the atmosphere and try to relax myself. I know the referee will not agree to my request. I just joked with him to ease the tension. I will try to win the next game. ”
