At 20:00 Beijing time on April 25, 2022, the second round of the World Snooker Championship continued. After two stages of the game, Karen Wilson drew 8-8 with 2015 world champion Bingham, while Higgins temporarily took a huge lead of 11-5 with his seven-game winning streak in the second stage, and he was only two sets away from advancing to the quarterfinals. From the objective point of view, Higgins has a high probability of advancing to the quarterfinals, but the game between Wilson and Bingham may continue to show a difficult to win and lose game trend.
Wilson and Bingham will continue to be indistinguishable
In the first two stages of Wilson and Bingham, Bingham was clearly outstanding in the first stage, taking a 5-3 lead in the first stage with a three-shot 50+. But after the game moved into the second phase, Wilson managed to rewrite the score, and he hit Back Bingham 5-3 at this stage. In the eyes of many, Wilson may reverse Bingham to win this game, but in fact, Wilson will not be easy to win this game. Bingham is an experienced veteran who is very good at controlling the situation, so Wilson must play sharp firepower to defeat him, otherwise it is not impossible for Wilson to be eliminated.
Higgins already has a good chance of eliminating Sancham
In the match between Higgins and Sancham, Higgins' performance in the second stage can be described as very fierce. In the first stage of the game, Sankam was also able to bite the score with the ability to control the game. But after moving into the second stage, Higgins fully took the initiative on the court, and he temporarily led Sancham 11-5 in seven consecutive sets with two-shot breakers and two 50+ performances. In fact, Sankam's hopes of advancing to the quarter-finals are slim, and there are few references to the world championship stage to complete a reversal with his opponent six sets ahead. What's more, Sancham is still facing player Higgins, who has been in the top sixteen in the world for 28 consecutive years. In such a situation, Higgins' advantage in advancing to the quarter-finals is already very obvious, so it is likely to be another big win.
Higgins advanced to hopeful Wilson or difficult to qualify
Judging from the course of the two games, higgins is not under much pressure to advance to the quarterfinals, after all, he only needs to win two more games. But in this match between Bingham and Wilson, it is difficult to say who can advance to the quarterfinals. On the one hand, these two players performed well at the World Championships, and on the other hand, they are the best in the world stage. For players of their strength level, it is normal for who wins and who loses, because their strength is too close. In fact, playing the last stage of the game is no longer a test of the player's technical ability, because it is more like a test of the player's tactical, energetic and psychological qualities, so who can hold on to these three aspects, who may become the final big winner. But for higgins and Sancham's match, it was completely different, after all, Higgins's advantage was too great. On the one hand, he is experienced, on the other hand, he is also six sets ahead, and he just has to face Sankam with ease. So Higgins is most likely able to qualify, but for Wilson and Bingham, the promotion is still very difficult, because they still need to face a game to grab the fifth.
