Event Preview
First of all, congratulations to Zhao Xintong and Zhang Anda for reaching the final; both have performed excellently throughout the tournament to get here.
This final will definitely attract global attention, and at least domestically, it will be highly watched.
Zhao Xintong plays like O'Sullivan, an attacking style player, but in this tournament, he has also demonstrated top-class defensive skills.
Zhang Anda is a defensive player, similar to Selby, steady and deliberate, with a slow shot pace that can wear down opponents.
If Zhao Xintong can stay calm, engage in defensive battles with Zhang Anda, and then counterattack, I believe winning the championship will be within his reach.
My personal prediction is Zhao Xintong will beat Zhang Anda 10-5 or 10-6. What do you all think?
