[Central News Agency]Taiwan’s “godfather of billiards” Zhuang Zhiyuan lost the first round of the men’s singles Asian Cup billiards match in the early morning, and then won 4 consecutive rounds to stage a comeback show. He defeated Indian player Kamel 4-1 and advanced to the top 8.
The 2022 Asian Cup Billiards Tournament was held in Bangkok, Thailand. A total of 4 Taiwanese players participated. Taiwanese billiard champion Lin Yunru and female billiard player Zheng Yijing both stopped in the first round, while the first sister Chen Siyu successfully broke through and broke into the top 8.
The 41-year-old Zhuang Zhiyuan came to the finale. He won the men’s singles event in the World Table Tennis Professional League (WTT) Westchester (Westchester) branch event in May this year and is currently ranked 16th in the world.
Zhuang Zhiyuan’s Asian Cup men’s singles first-round opponent is the 44th-ranked Indian player Achanta Sharath Kamal. The two sides have met 4 times in their careers and each won 2 wins. However, the last time they met was in the 2018 Asian Games.
Although Zhuang Zhiyuan lost the first game 7-11, he regained his rhythm in the second game. When he was leading 5-4, he pulled out a 6-0 offensive and pulled back with 11-4.
When the third game was tied at 3-3, Zhuang Zhiyuan relied on his backhand to attack consecutively to gain the lead, and directly cashed in the game point following 10-7.
Zhuang Zhiyuan continued his offensive in the 4th round, winning 11-4 and taking the lead in drawing cards. In the 5th round, he did not give his opponent too many chances and won 11-6.
After Zhuang Zhiyuan advances to the quarter-finals, he will compete with Iran’s Noshad Alamiyan, who upset China’s Lin Gaoyuan, to compete for tickets to the quarter-finals.
