The 60-year-old Jimmy White qualified for the main event of the British Championship, although it was a bit unexpected, but it was very worthy of praise and respect
Last night, in the fourth qualifying round of the Snooker British Championship, that is, the qualifying round, 60-year-old Jimmy White defeated Dominic Dale 6-1 to advance to the main event.
Many fans were surprised by this result. However, if you look at his four-round record, it may not be surprising that he has been in very good form lately.
First round, 6-0 clean sheet Saatchis;
Second round, 6-0 clean sheet Mitchell Mann;
In the third round, he won 6-4 against Harry Maguire;
In the fourth round, he defeated Dale 6-1.
If the opponent in the first two rounds is relatively weak, the opponent in the third round is the famous Harry Maguire, who is very strong. In that match, Jimmy White hit a shot over 100 and Maguire hit a 2 over 100 and lost. It can be seen that the elder White has been in good shape recently.
Jimmy White, known as the "second oldest man of the millennium", has always been active in snooker because of his love for snooker. This love is also reflected in the fact that he takes every game very seriously, takes it seriously, and is very focused, admirable and respectable in every shot.
Although he was older and his grades were not particularly good, the elder White was in a particularly good mood and was able to face winning and losing calmly.
I wish Jimmy White a good result in the main event of the British Championship!
