The final of the 2022 World Snooker Championships has officially begun, with the final opponents Being Roño Sullivan and Judd Trump. There is no doubt that the two players are the two favorite players of the fans, and no matter who wins the final victory, the fans will be happy about it. Before the final began, Ronioz Sullivan confessed in an interview: Against Trump, I only have a chance to win the game if I play better!
I have to say that this year's World Championships are particularly special, with 3 post-70s players reaching the semifinals, and only Trump after the 80s advanced to the top 4. After a tough game of four, O'Sullivan easily beat John Higgins to advance to the final, and Trump won in a difficult comeback 17-16. After 9 years, Trump and O'Sullivan met again at the World Championships.
In 2013, Trump won all the way to the semi-finals of the World Championships to meet Ronino Sullivan, and after 28 sets, O'Sullivan defeated Trump 17-11 to win the promotion. Nine years on, Trump is no longer what it used to be, and O'Sullivan, as he gets older, is far worse than he once was. The two have played each other 29 times in their careers, with Trump having a slight advantage of 15 wins and 14 losses.
Trump is one of Snooker's many players, and few can take the lead against O'Sullivan. Even more frightening, the two met a total of 11 times in the final, with O'Sullivan winning only 3 of them and losing 8 to Trump as runners-up. No wonder O'Sullivan had such emotions before the final began.
O'Sullivan said: "Now I am not like a few years ago, there is no doubt that I can't play as well as Robertson and Judd at the moment, and in the face of players like them, I can only improve my concentration and competitive level again to have a chance to win the game, especially to control the emotions." ”
"I used to play well, so I won a lot of games, now I'm not that good enough, the situation is far worse than before, so in the game, I can only do my best to reduce mistakes. In the last season or two, I've played okay, but I've won very little because I'm not at my best. This game, I only have more stability. ”
The first phase of the duo's match has already begun, with Trump seizing the opportunity to score a 72-pointer in the opening and O'Sullivan scoring a 120-point 120-point victory in the second inning. Immediately after, O'Sullivan took the initiative and eventually took a 5-1 lead in five consecutive sets, during which O'Sullivan shot 2 to break the 100 and 1 plus.
Trump, on the other hand, is not in shape, and if he continues like this, O'Sullivan has a good chance of winning his seventh World Championship title. So, whether Trump can play a state and stop O'Shali's cultural and creative history, it remains to be seen.
