Hey there, snooker fans! Have you ever played a game where you have to hit colorful balls into pockets on a big table? That’s snooker! And this week, two amazing players from China had an exciting match at the World Snooker Championship in England!
Pang Junxu, a rising star, faced off against his fellow Chinese player Zhang Anda in a thrilling first-round match. The game started with Zhang leading 5-3. But Pang wasn’t giving up!
In the ninth frame (that’s like a round in snooker), Pang made an incredible break of 111 points! A break is when a player keeps scoring without giving the turn to the other player. So 111 points is a big deal!
Zhang fought back and kept his lead at 7-5. But then, Pang launched an awesome comeback! He won four frames in a row, making scores over 50 points each time. He even hit a century, which means he scored over 100 points in one go!
In the end, Pang won the match 10-7! 🎉 Now, he’s moving on to the next round where he’ll face the seven-time world champion, Ronnie O’Sullivan. How cool is that?
Other exciting news: World No.1 Judd Trump defeated China’s Zhou Yuelong 10-4. Judd will play against Shaun Murphy, who won his second Masters title in January.
Snooker is full of surprises and amazing skills. Who knows what will happen next? Stay tuned! 😊
