Jenson Kendrick 10:7 White rain dew

Lee Junwei 9:10 Andrew Padgett
Li Junwei, who is under great pressure of professional relegation, rose up and fought bravely, opening three cities in a row, Padgett played two single-stroke 50+, completed four consecutive hits, 4-3 against the super score, and then the two of them went back and forth, to the 11th game, it was still Padgett who was ahead of a position, and then the two changed their rhythm, you two rounds, I scored two points, and after eight rounds, the whole game did not hit a shot of 50+Li Junwei, who lost to Padget, who won with a single stroke of five strokes, fell in the tiebreaker, and the hope of relegation was shattered, and there is a high probability that he will completely lose his professional opportunity, and in the future professional qualifying tournament, will the 43-year-old Li Junwei still have the courage to come?
Ryan Thomson 3:10 Liam Davis
