Post-match summary and reflections

1. First of all, congratulations to Xiao Guodong and Chang Bingyu for winning and moving on to the next round.
2. Special praise goes to Chang Bingyu today, as he practically made history. He scored over 128 points in each of the four frames and only allowed Sean Murphy a single point. Impressive, right? He’s definitely Zhao Xintong’s successor!
3. Xiao Guodong had a shaky performance today. If he continues like this, his results in this tournament might not be very strong. What do you think?

Also, Zhao Xintong’s match against Fan Zhengyi is currently live on Huya. From the performance so far, Zhao’s attacking skills remain powerful and his form is excellent. He’s basically shutting out Fan Zhengyi. If nothing unexpected happens, he might take the championship again. What’s your opinion?
