So far, the world championship quarterfinals have decided six seats, and four world champions O'Sullivan, Higgins, Mark Williams and Bingham have joined hands to advance.
At this World Championship, O'Sullivan, Mark Williams and Higgins are recognized as the favorite players to win the championship, and they live up to expectations and easily advance to the quarterfinals. In addition, the new generation of players Yan Bingtao and qualifier Stephen Maguire also won the quarter-finals. Trump had established a large lead in the first two stages, and the prospect of qualifying was great, and the remaining two games were very competitive, especially the games between Karen Wilson and Bingham, which were very tense at one point.
Karen Wilson was the No. 5 seed, he eliminated Ding Junhui in the first round, Bingham was the No. 12 seed, he eliminated Lu Haotian in the first round. Karen Wilson is on the rise, and his record at Crucible is stable, Bingham has a world championship title and is very experienced, but as a 45-year-old veteran, his competitive form is not as good as before, and the stability has dropped greatly. So, Karen Wilson is more bullish.
In the first stage, Karen Wilson trailed 3-5. In the second stage, Karen Wilson fell behind 5-8 at one point, but he then found the offensive feeling, shooting three consecutive 50+ to chase the big score to 8 draws, and the suspense of the game returned. Young Karen Wilson is chasing ferociously, youth is his advantage, Bingham, as a veteran, really can't stay steady in long-game games, and Karen Wilson looks like he has a chance to win.
However, after a period of rest, Bingham regained his touch, and the third stage came up to suppress Karen Wilson, who had a chance to hit the full score, although stopped at 97 points, but Bingham won four straight sets in a row with better offense and more stable defense, and won 12-8 match points. Karen Wilson was in a slump in these four innings, sleepwalking, and suddenly fell into a desperate situation.
After the break, Karen Wilson's feel still didn't improve, Bingham quickly found a mobile phone session, but after he scored 20 points, there was a low-level error, Karen Wilson then got started, and he only scored 27 points. Bingham Bench attacked successfully, but made a mistake on the verge of overtaking, and Karen Wilson pulled back a set 70-66. In the 22nd inning, Bingham Bench scored offensively and then won the set with a few starts, eliminating Karen Wilson 13-9 on aggregate to advance to the quarterfinals, waiting for the winner between Trump and McGill!
So far, the world championship quarterfinals have decided six places, namely O'Sullivan, Higgins, Mark Williams, Bingham, Yan Bingtao, Stephen Maguire.
