And the media hyped it up, and they hyped the final as a pinnacle showdown between two young talents.
At nine o'clock in the morning on June 18th, the final of the high-profile Snooker China Open began, the number of rounds in the final has risen to 25 rounds, whoever wins 13 rounds first, who will be able to lift the championship trophy of the first Snooker China Open, and these 25 rounds of the game will be divided into two days.
When the two finalists shook hands before the game, Ding Hongxing saw the burning fighting spirit in O'Sullivan's eyes, and he couldn't help laughing, he was very familiar with O'Sullivan in his previous life, he knew that O'Sullivan was an emotional player with a strong personality, his personality was a little chic and uninhibited, and there were some cynicisms, and there were really not many times when his fighting spirit was so burning.
Ding Hongxing's smile was interpreted by O'Sullivan as a polite smile, so he also smiled at Ding Hongxing, and suddenly, the atmosphere of this final changed from saber-rattling to a little calm.
However, after the start of the game, the atmosphere was not so peaceful.
In the first game, the situation was very chaotic after the kick-off, neither side could play a high score, but the two offensive masters played a defensive battle, after nearly an hour of internal strength, O'Sullivan seized an opportunity, cleared the table with one shot, and reversed Ding Hongxing 68-65.
In the second game, it was also a chaotic game, after more than half an hour of fierce battle, O'Sullivan went to the next game, but the progress of these two games was not smooth, and it was not too consistent with the style of the two players, which was a bit surprising.
However, everyone can also see that O'Sullivan is very focused today, which is very different from his state in recent years, and it seems that today's game will be a good victory.
In the third game, O'Sullivan started with an accurate long platform attack after Ding Hongxing's kick-off, and then continued to attack around the black ball, and soon, he exceeded 100 with a single shot, and he still did not stop attacking, he opened the bow left and right, and the chic and extremely successful clearing of the platform hit a perfect score of 147 points.
This perfect score shot actually took only three minutes and 36 seconds, such a speed, maybe only O'Sullivan can play it, the audience gave O'Sullivan warm applause, Ding Hongxing also stood up, applauding O'Sullivan, O'Sullivan's performance, anyone who watches it will feel pleasing to the eye.
O'Sullivan's momentum is amazing, he won three games in a row as soon as he came up, and there was a beautiful perfect score stroke, which made everyone sweat on Ding Hongxing, only Ding Hongxing himself, his face was still very calm.
In the fourth game, O'Sullivan teed off, his tee shot was of very high quality, and the cue ball returned to the tee area and stopped at the edge of the library.
Ding Hongxing stood on the side of the table, he looked at the situation on the table, more than a foot away from the upper right top pocket, there is a red ball with a lower ball, but this ball is so difficult that it is unimaginable, the distance between the cue ball and the target ball is too long, and the cue ball is attached to the edge of the library, it is not easy to set up a rod, to maintain the stability of the ball, it is not easy to talk about.
Almost no one thought that Ding Hongxing would play this ball, but White, who was watching the game in the stands, said to Davis beside him firmly: "He will definitely play down." ā
White lost to O'Sullivan in the first round and came to a first-round tour, but Davis was not much better than him, he lost to Ding Hongxing in the second round, and he said to White: "I can't play this kind of ball." ā
White smiled and looked at Ding Hongxing intently.
Ding Hongxing wiped the head of the club, leaned over to hit the ball, his gaze was full of determination, and his right hand was as stable as steel cast iron.
Ding Hongxing made a shot, the cue ball rolled out unhurriedly, hit the red ball, the red ball obediently rolled into the top pocket, and the cue ball bounced half a foot away after hitting a library, just did the black ball, and left some angles, and it was nothing more than that.
There was thunderous applause in the stands, and White applauded and smiled at Davis, who clapped vigorously and shook his head: "Young people are really amazing now." ā
Ding Hongxing's face was as usual, he shot into the black ball without thinking, after scoring a few red balls scattered outside, he used a black ball at the opposite angle to explode the red ball pile, his cue ball was controlled to the top, the part that hit the red ball pile was very positive, the cue ball did not go too far, he had multiple red balls to play in the next shot, and this shot attracted warm applause.
At this point, there is no difficulty on the table, Ding Hongxing took away all the red balls smoothly, in this process, he also opened the bow left and right, and the audience noticed that Ding Hongxing's each red ball was also connected to the black ball, they couldn't help but hold their breath, will there be a miracle of two consecutive perfect scores today?
Ding Hongxing did not disappoint the audience, his heart was like water, as if he was practicing normally, and successfully emptied all the remaining colored balls.
When he hit the last black ball into the bag, the audience stood up and gave Ding Hongxing the warmest applause and cheers.
O'Sullivan also stood up and applauded Ding Hongxing, he applauded and shook his head at the same time, this is really an incredible performance, in the history of official snooker competitions, there has never been a performance in which two players played a full score in two consecutive games, Ding Hongxing's strong response made O'Sullivan feel broken.
The most excited is Hearn, he clapped vigorously with red light, he was so satisfied with his move to add a stop to the China Open, after this competition, snooker in China can not be popular.
The time of the full score stroke in this game just now was also counted, three minutes and twelve seconds, Ding Hongxing's time for the perfect score stroke was more than 20 seconds less than O'Sullivan's time, and he also opened the bow left and right, which made the audience sigh, this is really a peak duel!
The referee announced that since it was almost noon, the morning game was temporarily over here and resumed in the afternoon.
