Snooker National Championship update: Zhao Xintong has clawed back two frames but still trails Wu Yize 6-8.
The 14th frame just finished with Zhao Xintong winning, making the overall score 6-8. Zhao is behind, and Wu Yize has reached match point.
Now, Zhao Xintong’s touch has returned as he has won two frames in a row. When Wu Yize powered ahead with four consecutive frames to lead 8-4, both players took a break for the mid-session interval. After the break, Zhao won two frames. It seems he reviewed his game during the break, identified areas for improvement, and quickly adjusted. However, since Wu Yize has match point, Zhao cannot afford any mistakes; otherwise, Wu will secure the ninth frame first and advance to the final!
