hole in one

At the China Open, he once had a chance to play against Carroll.Although no one thought he could beat Carroll at the time, almost everyone expected him to fight Carroll.The Internet and the media are all hyping up, and the scalpers have even raised the price of tickets to sky-high prices.But that one, he retired.

This retirement caused him a lot of criticism. Although he didn't regret it, he still felt a little regretful in his heart.

Carroll, that's a yardstick in snooker, nobody wants to try, especially in the game.For this game, he did everything he could, watched Carroll's video, studied his every routine, adjusted his mentality before the game, and when he stepped on the field, He was already completely thinking about the game. Even when he saw Zhou Ru in the audience, he didn't feel much when he thought of those things.

This is an opponent that he must go all out for!

Snooker is a sport that is not too passionate, but one thing that is better than other sports is that you don't have to think about retiring too early.Other sports, such as football and basketball, almost want to retire at the age of 30. Although they can still gallop on the field for a few years, at this time, physical injuries have begun to show signs.And once more than 35 years old, very few people can continue.

Snooker is not.

At the level of snooker, there are mostly 35-year-old players, and many of them can even play into their 40s.Carroll is one such player. He is 37 years old and has been on the stage for 20 years. He has made great achievements in battle, and the medals he won can hang on a wall.Compared with him, Wang Nan is just a fledgling young man.Especially when the two stand together, the gap is more obvious.

Now Wang Nan is tall and tall, and his playing style and temperament are not comparable to those of the past. It is not always the case, but once he stands out, he definitely has a strong star aura.But Carroll's 20 years of experience is more stable and practical, with blond hair and blue eyes, a gentle smile on his mouth, and his every move is elegant and steady, especially when he bends down to play, even Lin Haitao has to secretly praise him One sound.

But before he could praise him, there was a cold snort from beside him, and it took all his energy to control himself from looking at the people around him, so as not to make a fool of himself.

The first few rounds were very normal, both of them played above the standard, both offensive and defensive, it was pleasing for those who understand snooker, and it was also pleasing for those who don't know snooker, so it's not like Lin Hai Does Tao have any special purpose for doing this, and the love of beauty is always shared by everyone.Although Carol doesn't have a star face, the calm experience of a middle-aged man is full of beauty.It's just that there are some people who are not satisfied. They thought this would be a spark hitting the earth.

"Is there any mistake? Nanzi and Carol didn't even talk!"

"Obviously Carol has spoken for Nanzi!"

When Wang Nan retired from the game, someone asked Carroll. Carroll didn't know the situation at first, so he said that he was very sorry: "Wang is a very good opponent. He is a member of the new Chinese snooker force." One of the representatives, it's a pity that I didn't have a good match with him this time, but I believe there will be opportunities in the future. Will I be blamed for retiring? Why should I? Everyone has the right to choose what they want to do. "

Carol and Wang Nan don't have any friendship, he would say that, one is the words of the scene, and the other is the temperament.At that time, these words did not attract much attention, and it was not dug out until the two met again this time.At the moment, some people praised Carol as a representative of a gentleman, but some people were even more excited.They were full of excitement talking about uncle and junior, and when the two of them stood together, they wanted to scream with their hearts in their hands.But the two of them just shook hands and didn't make contact again, and they didn't even look at each other very much.

"We must believe that someone's love is silent and suppressed!"

……

The first stage of the game passed quickly, [-] to [-], Wang Nan fell behind.Although this score made the Chinese fans somewhat regretful, it was not unacceptable, especially when he continued to show off in the second stage and overtook Carroll for three rounds, everyone was even more satisfied.

"The current score is nine to six, and Nanzi is leading." Shen Feng's voice was very calm, as if he was sure of winning, "Now let's look at this game. If Nanzi can win, then he can take the lead." The advantage of four games has entered the third stage. Well, a friend sent a text message saying that Wang Nan has a great chance of winning if he is ahead of four games. Such a number of rounds leads, it is indeed a great chance of winning, but the World Championships, we know that this time the game is the same as the last time, there are also 25 rounds, which means that after excluding this round, there are still nine rounds to follow , so the following is still full of variables.”

"More importantly, Carroll is a player who is very good at counterattacking. He has a record of being pulled down by the opponent for ten rounds and then recovering in one go."

"It's like this, and his counterattack is very stable. It doesn't mean that he can counterattack today, but he can't tomorrow. His counterattacks are the majority. Friends who are familiar with snooker should know that there is such a saying , Carroll-like victory. That is to say, he was led by the opponent first, and then chased back in one breath."-Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that he was alluding to Burrows.

"Big lead."

"Yes, if you win like this, it will be called a Carroll-like victory."

Despite saying this, people are still looking forward to Wang Nan's round, and some even count on their fingers. If Wang Nan wins this round, he only needs to win a few more rounds tomorrow to enter the top four.Some people thought that according to Wang Nan's previous posture, this round should not be difficult no matter how you look at it.But I don't know if Zhang Xitian's crow's mouth was right. At the beginning of this round, Wang Nan played hard, not at all as smooth as the previous rounds.

Although his offensive was fierce, every time he wanted to distance himself, he would be pulled back by Carroll. Obviously, Carroll didn't want to enter the next day's game with a failure.Wang Nan's ball, the cue ball hit the red ball, but failed to send the black ball into the hole.

"Opportunity, opportunity, if this ball is won, Nanzi's game will be almost the same."

"This opportunity is hard to get. Carroll's shot just now was very clever. Wang Nan's downswing posture was awkward, but Nanzi didn't give the opponent a chance. This shot, Carroll is still not good. beat."

This is indeed the case. At this time, there are only two red balls on the table, one is on the top, and the other is on the bottom, but it is close to the edge of the storage on the left, and it is in the middle of the middle pocket and the bottom pocket. Hiding behind the black ball, half of his body was blocked. Although he was not a snooker player, it was very difficult for Carroll to hit this shot.

Carol walked around the case and looked up at Wang Nan.At the beginning of this game, he did not expect that this game would be so difficult.He knew this opponent. They had fought once. Although Wang Nan was completely out of shape in that fight, he was his opponent after all, so he analyzed it in detail.It was because he paid too much attention to it last time, but this time he ignored it. He thought his opponent would be Bundy.Who knows that he and Bondi will not meet until the next round at the earliest.

He just looked at it casually, but he didn't expect to arouse some people's excitement.After watching it, he bent down and shot this shot slowly. The cue ball touched the red ball, then bounced back, rubbed the black ball and stopped there, and the red ball reached the top.

A round of applause!

"Snooker! Super snooker! This ball is very difficult for Nanzi, no, it is very difficult for any player. Carol is indeed Carroll. This round, Nanzi may be very sad!" Shen Feng's voice was a little excited, but at this moment no one cared too much, this ball was really beautiful.According to other people's comments, even if you are good at it, it is difficult!Fang Wenzhuo sat in the auditorium, kept looking at Carol, and thought to himself, what kind of person is this, he can play as long as he plays, what does it mean to play such a difficult ball!If Wang Nan can't solve this ball, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight!

Wang Nan stood in front of the table and watched for a long time before lying down. This ball is difficult to solve, but it is not without the ball. This is not extreme snooker, but this ball requires skill.He licked his lower lip, narrowed his eyes, and putt hard.

The cue ball was ejected like a cannonball, and when everyone's hearts were raised, it had already collided with the edges of the left bank, the top bank, and the right bank, and ran back.

There was silence, and after a long time, Shen Feng spoke when the referee repositioned the ball: "It seems that Nanzi wanted to try to solve the ball, but in fact, he succeeded just a little bit."

"Well, it's hard not to touch a ball."

... Shen Feng didn't respond, but kept asking in his heart, are you being sarcastic, are you being sarcastic, are you being sarcastic?

The cue ball was set up again, and Wang Nan lay down again, this time he was still hitting hard, but this time, the cue ball finally got something - he hit a yellow ball, although the yellow ball was only two points, but in this At that time, Wang Nan would still be fined four points.

He originally overtook Carroll by six points, but now, he was overtaken and came back.

"That Englishman is too unkind, can that ball be solved? He solved one and let me see!"

Hu Dangdang was angry in front of the computer, and Wang Nan stood in front of the case again. This time, he stood for a longer time. His figure was thin and lonely. If it was other sports, someone would definitely take a picture of Carol's head. The mineral water bottle is still on.Even so, some people condemned Carol: "No, no, how can uncle be so difficult for Nanzi?"

"It's sad to see Nanzi can't solve the ball."

"I just like watching Nanzi make snooker for others."

"Uncle is too cruel!"

"This is sadomasochism..."

No matter how far the others are, Wang Nan is calculating back and forth.He was prepared for those two strokes. It is normal for such a ball to fail to solve three or four strokes. However, if he solves it and is penalized, he will really lose!
