The snooker championship arena has been full of ups and downs, with unexpected twists and turns. Who would have thought that after fierce competition, the final four would emerge with such an exciting result! Shortly after the group stage concluded, Mark Allen secured his place in the semi-finals with a 6-4 victory, becoming the first player to advance. The remaining three semi-final spots are still undecided, with the matchups between Xiao Guodong, O'Sullivan, Selby, and Murphy capturing everyone's attention. Almost every match can be described as heart-stopping, with players giving it their all like desperate soldiers. Speaking of the group stage performance, Mark Allen was undoubtedly the standout player. He started off very strong, using consecutive breaks of over 50 in the first game to leave his opponents breathless. Especially in the third game, he exploded with astonishing counterattacking power, scoring a single break of 102 points to complete a comeback from a 0-22 deficit! This strong performance by Mark Allen in the match was also commendable. Facing Brazilian player Igor Figueiredo, he was once chased down in score but ultimately won 4-2, easily advancing to the group final. Jack Jones' performance should not be overlooked either. In the match against Gary Wilson, Jones played brilliantly, especially with his century break (106 points) in the second game, which completely eliminated Wilson's ability to fight back and firmly controlled the rhythm of the game. Even though Wilson later tried to retaliate with a 120-point shot, Jones had already locked in the initiative and advanced with a 4-2 victory. In the group…

On January 21st, Beijing time, the first day of the 5th group of the 2025 Snooker Championship League concluded. World champions Judd Trump, Neil Robertson, and Stuart Bingham competed alongside other top players such as Jack Jones, Joe O'Connor, Matthew Selt, and Tom Ford. The competition in this group was fierce, resulting in a surprising outcome where 42-year-old Neil Robertson lost nine consecutive games, ending the first day with three straight defeats and currently ranking last. Neil Robertson and Judd Trump are both post-80s superstars who once kept pace with each other. However, over the past few seasons, Neil Robertson's form has significantly declined while Judd Trump has remained strong, pulling ahead of Robertson. This season, although Neil Robertson's form seemed to be improving, his performance has been inconsistent, making it clear that he is struggling to catch up with Trump, as evidenced by his performance in the championship league. On the first day of the fifth group, Judd Trump defeated Tom Ford 3-1, Stuart Bingham 3-1, and then swept Neil Robertson 3-0 in a key match. Finally, facing Jack Jones, the runner-up of the previous World Championship, Trump scored single-stroke points of 70, 112, and 103 to win 3-1. On the first day, Trump not only won all four matches but also made three century breaks, currently leading the group standings. In contrast, Neil Robertson struggled in the group stage, narrowly defeating Matthew Selt 3-2 in his first match. He then lost 0-3 to Tom Ford, 0-3 to Trump, and 0-3 to Joe O'Connor. Apart from losing to Trump,…

The fourth group of the Snooker Championship League was a fiery competition with a series of exciting events unfolding. After the matches concluded, we finally learned who would enter the winners' group to face greater challenges. This group's event was not just an ordinary match; in fact, it created several memorable records. Firstly, let's talk about Jack Jones, who has truly given himself a remarkable name! Did you know that he made it to the finals four times in a row from the first group to the fourth? What level is this? This guy is constantly surpassing himself as a benchmark! Although he ended up with a runner-up in the fourth group, he took home approximately £20,000 in prize money, which does not count towards the world rankings, but it's still a significant amount. Speaking of this competition, we must also mention Bingham! The veteran is not one to be outdone, as he set an astonishing record! In this match, Bingham broke the record of over 600 century breaks, becoming the 11th player in history to achieve this feat! Do you know what this means? It's not something that can be accomplished easily; it requires genuine strength! Moreover, Bingham is no ordinary player; he has won six ranking titles and has claimed both the World Championship and Masters titles, only lacking an English Open trophy to complete the grand slam. This time breaking the record, it must be said, this guy is really quite formidable. Moving on to the defending champion Mark Selby, his performance is also not to be…
