As we all know, Lee Walker plays very slowly, the average batting time is more than 30 seconds, at the end of all professional players, in the just-concluded Elder World Championships for several players older than themselves, the pain grinding directly to grind to the first championship of his career, but this championship has not brought himself good luck, Walker has lost twice in a row in the Q-School, if the 3rd stop continues to lose, then he will not have the opportunity to return to the profession, such a result is obviously what fans want to see, After all, there is already a grinding king Rod Lola returning in the first leg, and the professional tour does not need too many grinding kings.
