The last time Marco was issued a wild card was during the epidemic period. The lack of reopening of sports venues and other factors affected the quality of training. He believes that the preparations for this season are more ideal, and the weekly training volume has returned to the level before the epidemic. Marco, who is currently ranked 94th in the world, will use the European Masters qualifiers held in the UK at the end of July as the opening match of the new season, striving to qualify for the main match in August, and hopes to return to the top 64 in the world as soon as possible. “My goal is to Do it within two years. If you are aggressive, you hope to reach the standard within one year, but your performance needs to be more stable, and you must not be lazy in training and competition. In recent years, the level of the new generation of golfers is getting higher and higher, especially Sisi, who has reached the top 4 of the World Championships. Jiahui, there are also many players waiting for a breakthrough opportunity. The current professional level is the highest since I joined the war, because O’Suliyun, Zhuo Linpu and others are still young, and the old, middle-aged and young players are stronger. The challenge has increased , it is a good thing for the billiards world.”

Following the establishment of the children’s billiard school with the team three years ago, Marco was also invited by a Hong Kong company this year to serve as a technical consultant for the production of billiard flannel, and once once more participated in billiards as a player other than a player. “British velvet is more difficult to play when used in Hong Kong. It is always related to wet weather, which makes the table less responsive than expected. I hope to have a table suitable for use in Hong Kong. The texture is similar to that of racing velvet and it is more durable. and even discuss with the master craftsmen in person.” He revealed that the second-generation finished products have been produced one following another and have been used by the Hong Kong Sports Institute and some private billiard rooms. He hopes to gradually promote billiards in Hong Kong and the world. Participate in billiards with characters other than the table tennis, and a small wish is to hold different billiards events around the world.”
