On April 22, Beijing time, the first round of the Snooker World Championship continued to fight, and not long ago ended a 1/16 duel, 4-time World Championship champion Higgins refused to upset, defeated Joe O'Connor 10-7, becoming the eighth player to advance to the top 16, China currently has three people temporarily advancing to the top 16, that is, Lei Peifan, Zhao Xintong, Xiao Guodong, of which Lei Peifan and Zhao Xintong will meet in the quarterfinals in advance!

Higgins is a four-time world champion, once in a long championship drought, but this season has been rejuvenated, won the Jade Mountain Open and Tour Championships, showing the level of immortality, currently ranked third in the world straight through Crucible, the first round of the main tournament encountered Joe O'Connor, once defeated Trump and Murphy to reach the final of the Jade Mountain Open, which is also a repeat of the final of the Jade Mountain Open!

After the start of the game, the first four games of the two were evenly matched 2-2, Higgins defended steadily, Joe O'Connor was sharp, but then O'Connor hit one shot to break 100 and two 80+, playing a 3-1 score to lead 5-3. Higgins used the defense to fight back with a four-game climax to overtake the score 7-5, Joe O'Connor chased two games to a 7-7 draw, Higgins finally found the accuracy, won three games in a row to defeat the opponent 10-7, refused to be upset, and narrowly won to advance to the round of 16!

Judging from this game, Higgins is not in very good shape, only playing two shots to break 100 and one shot to 50+, but losing the data and winning the game, which shows that Higgins is really immortal!

In addition, because Zhao Xintong defeated the last runner-up Jack Jones 10-4, so that we will meet in the quarterfinals in advance, Zhao Xintong and Lei Peifan compete for a place in the quarterfinals, which is really very happy, and Ding Junhui got a 6-3 lead in the first stage, although Ding Junhui was not in good shape, but the lead was due to the worse performance of the opponent, and Si Jiahui temporarily took a 6-3 lead in the face of the strong qualifier Gilbert, and I hope that the two will make persistent efforts in the second stage and strive to enter the top 16, come on!
