Jack Lisowski And Ricky Walden His match began on Friday in the quarter-final series. We expected there to be a snooker attack and a close fight, but only the former proved it. Lisowski’s performance was almost flawless and he defeated Walden 5-1, who recorded a full clearance in the only winning frame. Lisowski stated:
“Ricky is a great player, in the second frame he pushed a break that I haven’t seen better all week. But he missed some moves in important situations and I was able to take advantage of the opportunities that came to me. I felt good throughout the match. Match, I’m in a good mood, and I’m enjoying the game of snooker. “
Lisowski has found a very good balance between dynamic and deliberate playing, which can take him much further. Until this week. As he said, he talks every day With Peter EbdonHe hopes that if he reaches the final, his mentor, the 2002 world champion, will also be in attendance. Lisowski is aiming for his first tournament win of his life.
Barry Hawkins And David Gilbert His fight came after Lisowski’s success. Hawkins got off to a flying start with a 91 break and two submissions, taking a 3-1 lead into the break. However, Gilbert found himself and fought the deciding frame. Where Hawkins excelled again, he made a great break at the table with courageous, confident moves. He has gone ahead and will be Trump’s opponent in the semifinals. And Alice Hawkins is the player who actually beat Trump this season, which is something not many people can say for themselves. Except Hawkins Mark Selby And Hammad Miah. Hawkins is seeking his second championship win of the season, which would be his fifth points-scoring title overall.
evening Judd Trump And Chris Wakelin I have got. Stephen Maguire He was down 3-1, but Trump played much better in the second half of the match. However, he could only win 5-4. After Thursday’s suffering (4-2 Ian Burns Against then 4-3 Nopon Singhkham v.) won again in a close battle. Trump has won for the 18th time in a row: seven at the British Open, six in Wuhan, and a fifth in Belfast. He only needs to win two games to become his third straight top scorer, but that task will not look easy as both Hawkins and Lesowski are playing at a tremendous level. And Trump, as he himself said, is becoming more and more tired.
Wakelin won 5-2 Yuan Shijun against. The defending Shoot Out champion is thus preparing for the first “normal” semi-final of his career. He is by no means the favorite against Lisowski, as they have met four times so far, with Lisowski always winning. They start at 14:00, you have to win six frames.
