    Ronnie really supporting this young man for years now, should tell us we are looking at a future dominator of the game. I know, he is already top ten, but I am talking apex predator here.
    Great edit as usual, thanks, Cesar.

      it's these type of losses that will build him into that.

    In terms of raw talent Zhao has immense potential even in this whole match if he had the maturity and experience of a seasoned player Higgins wouldn't have come near but it is the perfect example of experience time and hardwork outshining talent.
    Well played both.

    Zhao got a bit overconfident when he had a big lead initially, not a good move when playing with Higgins who's known to turn the tables around in any situation.

    Zhao's shot on the brown @ 6:23 was absolutely brilliant. His cue action is better than textbook quality.

    Very entertaining match. Thank you Cesar for posting it. Very strange play from Higgins for many frames with so many easy balls missed and others just barely going in. Must be a concentration issue as he made many difficult long pots.

    90% of the videos I watch with Higgins are insanely tense matches.

    Ronnie's statement reminds me of the ending of Cars 3. He's slowly becoming the Hudson Hornet.

    Zhao played the game exactly the way he had been training for and knew how to, which is to grasp the opportunity when it came. It was a 50/50 chance. If only the black had gone in, history would have been different. Some people may say Zhao should have pocket the black and play a safety shot, but what if the chance never came? Higgins, as we know, is just as good a player at it where safety is concerned. Zhao may have regretted the chance not taken. But as it was, I don't think he regretted it. He was only playing the way he had been programmed for.

    • @jameschua6050
      @jameschua6050 Před rokem +1

      May I add further. I loved the way Ronnie and Zhao play their brand of snooker. That is what people paying good money came to see. Entertaining snooker at its best.

    Guitar soundtrack in the end is great! Cesar, do you have in your archives match with Ding Junhui and Mark Selby? (WSC 2017, SF). I wish it will be very intresting highlight. It was superb match!!!

      Not yet. Let me see if I can get it.

    • @jameschua6050
      @jameschua6050 Před rokem

      Yeah, there was one game in particular in which Ding played superbly. It prompted the lady referee to say it was the best match she ever preside over. That was truly an epic match. I can't pinpoint exactly who Ding played against.

    British snooker players are the best on the planet no doubt

    • @jameschua6050
      @jameschua6050 Před rokem +1

      Can't argue with that. Though China has quantity, Britain has quality and in good numbers too👌. Currently, China only has about 4-5 players who are inconsistent world beaters. Until China can produce the same amount of quality players, the centre of snooker will remain at the Crucible. It is very difficult to beat the British at their own game and on home soil. Snooker is to the British as table tennis is to the Chinese.

    I notice Ronnie always sit on the left seat. Certain players sit on the left or on the right only. Just my observation. Is it their preference?

      I think the higher ranked player, or the defending champ sits left.

    Maybe this is one of the matchs zhao lost on purpose, his shot selection, and technique changed after the interval, this is surely one of the fixing matchs he was inlvoved on

    • @CesarMuroya
      @CesarMuroya  Před rokem +3

      He was the only one among the ten who didn't fix any match he played in. I have read the 58-page final resolution :)

    I hope Ronnie would stop catering to the Chinese money and start supporting local talents. But, yet again, I guess there are millions of The Rocket sunglasses to sell in the Empire of the Rising Sun.

      You are a racist one, are you? There's nothing wrong with him recognising and helping a young talent who could be as great if not greater than him.
