On April 28, Beijing time, the second round of the 2024 Snooker World Championship continued, and the Chinese seedling Si Jiahui stopped in the round of 16 at 9-13, as the only non-British player in the top 16, the only post-00, once approached the score of 9-10 under the 3-8 behind, but suffered three consecutive whips out!
The 2023/2024 season of 21 Chinese players has officially come to an end, with the following results:
Zhang Anda has the best results, third in the season, No. 11 in the world (there is still a possibility of change, the same below) one championship and two runners-up, the only champion player, breaking the semi-finals drought, the final drought, the championship drought, the first time in his career to enter the top16, the first time to become a Crucible seeded player, although he is hard to find a win in Crucible, but the explosive season performance is still full of expectations.
Ding Junhui has reached the finals twice, No. 6 in the season, No. 7 in the world, and the championship drought in the ranking tournament for more than four years is still continuing, and the World Championships have been in one round for four consecutive years! But as the "hope of the whole village", no matter how many World Championships there are and whether they will be relocated elsewhere, Ding Junhui is always one of the favorites to win the championship, which is not only about strength, but about the desire of the heart!
Si Jiahui is the runner-up of the new German Masters, and has risen four places to No. 19 in the world rankings (18th in the season), surpassing Zhou Yuelong to become China's third brother!
Cao Yupeng is the runner-up of the new single-game limited-time tournament, No. 25 in the season, and No. 35 in the world at the moment, this is the third time in his career that he has advanced to the finals of the ranking tournament, but unfortunately he failed to win the championship!
The above four are all Chinese players who have advanced to the finals this season, and it is a pity that there is only one championship, which is an improvement compared to last season! But considering the dismal record of this World Championships, and Si Jiahui became a blockbuster last season, becoming the first post-00 semi-finalists in the World Championships, and he was once close to the finals. In addition, Ding Junhui won the championship of the "Six Red Ball World Championships" in the invitational tournament last season, and the overall results have regressed, after all, the World Championships is the jewel in the crown, and the Chinese snooker army has not yet broken through.
It is worth mentioning that the opponents who lost in the six finals this season were all TOP3, Zhang Anda lost to Xiaote and Allen, Ding Junhui lost to Rocket and Xiaote, Si Jiahui lost to Xiaote, and Cao Yupeng could not stop Allen.
Zhou Yuelong's best result of the season was the semifinals of the Northern Ireland Open, ranking 16th in the season, but he was the closest Chinese player to winning the championship, but unfortunately he was reversed in the semifinals, leaving a "good story of the fist brother", missing the fourth final of his career and breaking the championship drought, ranking 16th in the season and 21st in the world.
Pang Junxu's performance in the season is average, ranking 36th in the season, 9-10 Milkins in the World Championships, stopping in the first round of the main competition, taking the lead in the three defensive competitions in the deciding game but being reversed, and his ability to resist pressure and single stroke needs to be improved, but he is also one of the three Chinese players who have reached the top 32 in two consecutive World Championships.
Lv Haotian is a semi-finalist of the Wuhan Open, when he defeated the Rockets 5-1 in the quarterfinals, ranked 18th in the season, and was one of the five Chinese players to enter the Crucible in this World Championships, 5-10 Murphy, the fourth trip to Crucible in his career, suffered the third consecutive round tour.

He reached the quarterfinals in three ranking tournaments and defeated Hawkins, Ryan Day, Karen, Uncle Ma and other masters in the season.
