Beijing time on November 1 news, snooker European Masters qualifiers, The chinese players' competition is all over, and finally 14 people advanced to the main tournament, a new high! Even if Ding Junhui retires, from a macro point of view, Ding Junhui has made great contributions to China's snooker. Today, there are so many snooker professional players in China, all driven by Ding Junhui.
On the first day of qualifying, Xiao Guodong performed well, sweeping Lucas Clex 5-0, Zhou Yuelong beat Jimmy White 5-2 and Gao Yang beat David Liley 5-2.
On the second matchday, Fan Zhengyi beat Mark Lloyd 5-3 and Yuan Sijun beat Mark Lloyd 5-4.

On the last match day, Liang Wenbo won 5-2 and joined Hands with Wu Yize and Xu Si to enter the main match.
That is to say, a total of 14 members of the Chinese legion broke through and created new highs, namely Xiao Guodong, Zhou Yuelong, Gao Yang, Fan Zhengyi, Yuan Sijun, Cao Yupeng, Yan Bingtao, Zhang Anda, Pang Junxu, Li Xing, Zhang Jiankang, Liang Wenbo, Wu Yize, and Xu Si.
On the one hand, we see Ding Junhui in a slump and retire again. Ding Junhui is only 34 years old, but he is experiencing the lowest point of his career. In recent competitions, Ding Junhui is either a round of travel or a withdrawal, and the state is worrying.
But on the other hand, we want to thank Ding Junhui. After all, from the results achieved, Ding Junhui is still the first person in China, it is because of his drive, China now has so many snooker professional players, and now 14 people have advanced to the snooker European Masters, Ding Junhui has also made his own contribution.
As a 7-time world champion, Hendry is in very average form. Before qualifying for the German Masters, Hendry was eliminated by 17-year-old Gao Yang. Now, he has been eliminated by another Chinese player, that is, Li Xing, who is after the 90s. I can only sigh that Hendry is really cheap and old, even if he is a 7-time world champion, but the glory belongs to the past, not the present.
