On April 28, 2022, the quarter-finals of the Snooker World Championship were all over, and in a focus battle, the 2015 World Championship champion Stuart Bingham, with an 8-5 lead, finally lost the game 8-13 in a row in a losing 8 consecutive sets, which obviously surprised everyone, because Judd Trump started the second stage extremely poorly, the balance of the game had fallen to Bingham's side, but the 14th set began to change suddenly, Bingham suddenly became an amateur. All kinds of low-level mistakes flew all over the screen, gradually feeding Trump to make its state slowly heat up, and finally brewing bad consequences.
Trump was also a bit lucky, commenting after the game: "It was great to be able to improve the score to 8-8 after 5-8, and I am once again hopeful about winning the game. The defeat frustrated Bingham because he had a chance. He was in control of the game most of the time and put pressure on me. ”
The game was like that, with Trump returning to confidence in the third stage after winning three straight sets to a quick win. Bingham was visibly frustrated by this, saying on his personal social platform for the first time after the game: "Starting 8-5, if you say I'm going to lose 8-13, I'll say you're joking. I lost that black ball, and the next few innings of the snooker god didn't work against me. I lost some of my magic and ended up collapsing like a cheap tent. ”
Bingham described himself as a cheap tent in the second half of the game, venting his frustration of losing through self-deprecation. It is worth mentioning that this is the World Championships 4 years after the reappearance of the "tent said", as early as the 2018 World Championships, Ding Junhui in the 1/4 final against Barry Hawkins, in the case of 3-5, 5-8 behind, also in the way of losing 5 consecutive sets of the total score of 5-13 was swept by Hawkins, sitting in the European sports studio O'Sullivan directly commented on this: "He (Ding Junhui) is like a cheap tent, gently pressed down. ”
Judging from Bingham's self-ridicule, O'Sullivan's comments at the time were clearly not malicious. And the match gave Trump a lot of confidence, with Trump saying: "It's really exciting to play like this, Williams and O'Sullivan have reached the semi-finals. It's a battle I want to be in, not just sitting at home and watching. I have to stay on top of my game to deal with them. ”
