On April 24, Beijing time, the 2024 Snooker World Championship ended on the fourth day of competition, and the Chinese army finally ushered in its first victory. Post-00 teenager Si Jiahui showed a big heart, won the tiebreaker with one shot, eliminated Mark Williams 10-9, and advanced to the round of 16. After the match, the defeated Mark Williams praised Jiahui as a future world champion. It's a pity that another youngster, Pang Junxu, is out of the game 9-10.
Before Si Jiahui came on the stage, Chinese players Lu Haotian and Zhang Anda were out one after another, and the Chinese army was still unable to achieve victory. Si Jiahui was a semi-finalist at last year's World Championships, but he had a modest signing, as he faced former champion Mark Williams in the first round, who is not only experienced but has also been in excellent form this season. In the first stage, Si Jiahui fell behind 4-5. As soon as the second stage came up, Si Jiahui won 4 games in a row and led 8-5, and Mark Williams was quite helpless.
Subsequently, Mark Williams fought back, and he saved match points in a row to tie the game at 9. However, in the deciding game, Si Jiahui once again showed super self-confidence, he dared to fight, shot decisively, and attacked very sharply, and finally he scored 77 points in a single stroke, defeating Mark Williams 10-9, passing the first round of the World Championships for two consecutive years, and finally won the first victory of this World Championship for Chinese snooker.
Next, Si Jiahui's opponent is Jack Jones, and this is a good opportunity for him to keep going. It's a pity that the teenager Pang Junxu also played to the tiebreaker, but lost to Robert Milkins 9-10 and suffered a round of tours. In addition, after Mark Williams is out, 6 seeded players have been sent away in the first round of this World Championships, namely Luca Brecel, Zhang Anda, Ali Carter, Mark Selby, Gary Wilson, and Mark Williams.
In other matches, Ding Junhui fell behind Lisowski 4-5 in the first stage, and Barry Hawkins trailed Ryan Day 4-5, and the two seeded players had to work harder. Kyren Wilson leads Dominic Dyer 8-1 and Mark Allen leads Robbie Williams 7-2, with the two seeded players almost finishing in the round of 16.
On the fifth day of the main event, Ding Junhui and Jack Lisowski will decide the top 16 spots, Kyren Wilson and Dominic Dale will decide the top 16 spots, Mark Allen and Robbie Williams will decide the top 16 spots, and Barry Hawkins and Ryan Day will decide the top 16 spots. In addition, O'Sullivan ushered in his debut at this World Championships, against Jackson Page, and Higgins also ushered in his debut, against Jamie Jones.
