On April 19, Beijing time, after the Snooker World Championship draw was released, relevant institutions also gave the probability of winning this World Championship. Among them, O'Sullivan ranked first, Trump and Selbi ranked 2-3, and Allen, who had excellent luck, ranked 4th. In the first round, Ding Junhui, the Chinese first brother who met Lisowski, the strongest player in the qualifiers, was only ranked 9th. For Ding Junhui, his situation in this World Championships is indeed very difficult.
As the world No. 1 and has won 5 championships this season, O'Sullivan is still the number one favorite to win the championship. He will be aiming for his eighth World Championship title and eighth Grand Slam. At the same time, O'Sullivan also needs to use a world championship to retain the No. 1 position in the world. World No. 2 Trump is still O'Sullivan's number one opponent, and his probability of winning the championship is close to O'Sullivan. Selby, who has been in average form this season, is still ranked 3rd because of Selby's dominant style of play in long-game games.
China's Ding Junhui is only ranked 9th. At present, Ding Junhui is ranked 7th in the world, and it is obvious that he was drawn to Lisowski in the first round, and he is in the same 4/4 zone as O'Sullivan, which has a great impact on Ding Junhui's prospects of winning the championship. This is also the second consecutive year that Ding Junhui has met the top seed in the first round of qualifying. Against Lisowski, Ding Junhui won all 3 games before, but they were all games 5 years ago, and for Ding Junhui, he must not be taken lightly.
Among the other Chinese players, Zhang Anda is ranked 12th in the probability of winning the championship, Si Jiahui is ranked 15th, Lu Haotian is ranked 23rd, and Pang Junxu is ranked 24th. For several Chinese players, apart from Pang Junxu, who has been in terrible shape this season, Milkins has to give it his all in the first round. The first round of the World Championships will be played in 19 rounds and 10 wins, which will be a physical and intellectual challenge for all players.
