It is worth mentioning that Ding Junhui, a brother in China, also accepted an interview and publicly responded to many previous controversies about his absence from many competitions: missing a few games at the beginning of the game was not my intention, the cancellation of the Chinese game and the difficulty of the way home were even more difficult, and I had no choice but to miss one or two games at the beginning of the season, and I had done my best to return to the UK as early as possible and participate in as many games as possible. The beginning of the season was a bit difficult to get into, can only practice at home, there are good opportunities to fight, can only focus on practicing scoring techniques... I'm still very hungry for victory.
