Ding Junhui was absent from the top 16 in the world ranking of this year's England Open, and it is reported that Ding Junhui's agent forgot to register and could not participate! This has happened before! This year's tournament has been revamped and the prize money has been raised, from £80,000 for last season's winner to £100,000 this season! This is also to increase the motivation of the players! After the end of this English Open, the next step will be the United Kingdom Open, when Ding Junhui will participate! Since Ding Junhui has not received any ranking bonuses so far this season and is absent from this competition, the pressure on the next games is very great, otherwise he will miss the three red envelope events this season!
The first day of the competition was divided into 5 time periods, and Chinese player Jiang Jun first appeared against United States player El Said in the third time period, from the results of the previous German matches between the two sides, Jiang Jun's strength was slightly better, and finally Jiang Jun hit 1 shot to break 100 and 2 strokes 50+, a wave of 4 consecutive wins and clean opponents! At the same time, there was also a derby battle, Lei Peifan played against Ma Hailong, and finally Lei Peifan scored 72 points, 66 points, and 68 points in a single stroke, and the total score was 4-3 to kill Ma Hailong who scored 90 points and 59 points in a single stroke! Wang Yuchen, who played in the fourth time period, scored 56 points in a single stroke and won 4 consecutive games to defeat Carrington! The world champion Bai Yulu, who played in the same time period, lost 0-4 to Dean Yang, which fully shows that there is still a big gap between men's and women's players! Although Gong Chenzhi, a young player who played in the early morning period, scored 101 points, 112 points and 54 points in a single stroke, and was led by the total score of 3-2, he was reversed by the assassin Holt in 2 consecutive games, and Holt only scored 74 points in a single stroke, losing the data and winning the game!
