CCTV-5+ and Huya are broadcasting the Welsh Open Snooker semifinal between Wu Yize and Barry Hawkins for free.

This match is a best-of-11 frames contest. The current score sees Wu Yize behind 1-2 against Barry Hawkins, and the fourth frame is now underway.

Who will emerge victorious from this match and secure a place in the final?

1. Wu Yize is ranked 12th in the world, and Barry Hawkins is ranked 14th. Their head-to-head record is tied at 2-2. However, their most recent encounter was at the 2025 International Championship, where Wu Yize defeated Barry Hawkins 6-0.
2. The first three frames have been completed today, with Wu Yize largely on the back foot and trailing on the scoreboard. Wu Yize needs to push hard and strive to overcome his opponent, Barry Hawkins, to reach the final.
3. If Wu Yize does not adjust his approach during the match, winning will be very difficult. After all, Barry Hawkins has successively eliminated Mark Williams and Neil Robertson and is in excellent form!
4. I am looking forward to a final between Wu Yize and Higgins. What about everyone else?
