Mark Selby hat die China Open insgesamt zum vierten Mal gewonnen. Der Engländer avancierte mit neuem Queue zum klar besten Spieler der Woche und setzte sich souverän mit 10:6 gegen Noppon Saengkham durch. Schon zuvor hatte er im Turnierverlauf nur 7 Frames abgegeben. Selby bringt sich damit außerdem in gute Position im Kampf um die Nummer 1 in der Weltrangliste. Andreas Thies und Christian Oehmicke fassen zusammen.

Die China Open haben sich auf vier Spieler reduziert, stehen nun also vor dem Halbfinale. In den heutigen Viertelfinal-Duellen gab es einige interessante Matches, die von Kathi und Chris zusammengefasst werden. So setzt Noppon Saengkham seine Traumwoche weiterhin fort und schlug nach Trump und O'Sullivan nun auch Shaun Murphy. Sein nächster Gegner wird Zhou Yuelong sein, der den Lauf von David Gilbert stoppen konnte. Das andere Halbfinale bestreiten Mark Selby (nach einem Sieg über Neil Robertson) und Stuart Bingham (gewann gegen Zhang Anda).

Die Viertelfinals der China Open in Taiyuan stehen fest. Mit Stuart Bingham, David Gilbert, Noppon Saengkham und Zhang Anda sieht man dort Spieler, die in den letzten Monaten (und teils Jahren) nicht unbedingt mit Konstanz geglänzt haben. Auf der anderen Seite sind Akteure wie Shaun Murphy, Neil Robertson, Mark Selby und Zhou Yuelong unter den letzten Acht. Kathi und Chris fassen die Achtelfinals des hochdotierten Weltranglistenturniers zusammen.

Der Start in die China Open verlief für einige der Top-Spieler nicht ganz nach Plan. Shanghai-Sieger Judd Trump ist bereits raus und auch Zhao Xintong, Mark Williams, John Higgins, Barry Hawkins und Ding Junhui sind schon wieder auf der Heimreise. Auch sonst fühlen sich die China Open, zumindest dem Namen nach, nicht so ganz richtig an. Shaun Murphy hingegen sorgte für einen Punkterekord. Wie die ersten vier Tage in Taiyuan liefen, fassen Kathi und Chris zusammen.

While many supporters marvel at the skills displayed by the 'Class of 92' or the recent Chinese World Champions when they come together at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, what many snooker fans mightn't realise is there is a vibrant snooker circuit in county Galway with opportunites to play competitive tournaments or just to enjoy a few social frames. Recently, Donal Foran, the 'Athenry Assassin,' was crowned County Galway champion for the seventh time, overcoming Ballinasloe's Paul Keighery to successfully retain his title.  Both players have given so much into the promotion and coaching in the game. Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly called out to Ballinasloe Snooker Club this week to chat to both Donal and Paul, and started by congratulating Donal on his county championship success. == In the Ger McGrath Memorial Final played on Friday evening (5th June), Donal Foran was a 2-0 winner over Max Kennedy.

主播：Meimei（中国）+ Selah（美国） 音乐：Wonder最近，中国斯诺克迎来了一个历史性时刻。2026年5月5日，22岁的中国球员吴宜泽，在World Snooker Championship final（斯诺克世锦赛决赛）中，以18比17击败Shaun Murphy，拿下职业生涯第一个世锦赛冠军。这意义非凡，因为 World Snooker Championship，几乎就是斯诺克世界里的最高舞台。01. The Pinnacle of Snooker？斯诺克运动的巅峰？World Snooker Championship final也就是斯诺克世锦赛决赛，可以说是斯诺克运动的最高殿堂。It's the pinnacle of snooker.Pinnacle：巅峰、最高点Selah 还用另外两个比赛来类比：It's kind of like Wimbledon in tennis or The Masters in golf. 就像网球里的温网，或者高尔夫的大师赛。也就是说，能进入 World Snooker Championship final，本身就已经非常厉害。但更让大家震惊的是比分。吴宜泽以最小差距获胜，18比17。最小的差距可以说是“by the narrowest margin possible”.这场比赛最精彩的地方，其实是中途的局势变化。一开始，吴宜泽原本10比7领先，但后来 Shaun Murphy 开始疯狂追分。Shaun Murphy made a huge comeback (实现了巨大逆转).Comeback：逆转、翻盘比分很快变成了10比12。对于一个22岁的年轻球员来说，这种场面压力巨大。One frame away (只差一局) from losing. That's intense. 这里还有一个特别常用的表达：Under pressure：在巨大压力之下Imagine being only 22 years old and playing under that kind of pressure.就在比赛最紧张的时候，吴宜泽收到了一条短信。发信人是 Ronnie O'Sullivan。 奥沙利文，是斯诺克界的传奇人物。Living legend：传奇人物很多斯诺克球迷，都把 O'Sullivan 视为这项运动历史上最伟大的球员之一。而他给吴宜泽的建议非常简单：“Stay focused. Calm down. Trust your game.”（保持专注，冷静下来，相信自己的比赛。）其实越是关键时刻，越难做到 focused。尤其是在决赛中比赛势头发生变化的时候。Especially when momentum changes during a final.本来领先，后来连续丢分，很容易就会lose control of the match。Momentum：比赛势头、节奏但真正厉害的运动员，往往就是在这种时候稳住心态。让人感动的是——这并不是 O'Sullivan 第一次支持吴宜泽。For the past few seasons, he's almost acted like a mentor to him. 过去几个赛季里，他几乎像导师一样帮助吴宜泽。Mentor：导师、引路人他甚至曾经预测：“Wu Yize would become world number one and win a world championship within three years.”（吴宜泽会在三年内成为世界第一，并赢得世锦赛冠军。）他还说：“He is a once-in-a-generation talent.”Once-in-a-generation talent：百年一遇的天才对于年轻运动员来说，这是非常高等级的赞美了。带着导师的建议，吴宜泽也真的顶住了压力。After receiving the message, he stopped the losing streak (连败) and won three straight frames (连赢三局). Selah 直接说：“That's a real comeback story.”（这是真正的逆转故事。）最后那个决定性的球打进之后，the entire arena exploded with cheers. 整个场馆瞬间沸腾。02. True Sportsmanship 真正的体育精神吴宜泽获胜后，现场观众一直在喊：“WU! WU! WU!”。结果吴宜泽一开始以为they are booing (喝倒彩) him. 因为英文里的boo,也就是喝倒彩、嘘声，发音和“Wu” 很像。后来工作人员才告诉他大家不是在不是 boo，是在喊你的名字。比赛结束后，吴宜泽说了一句话，让很多人都特别感动。“No matter who you support, I think our love for snooker is shared.”（无论你支持谁，我想大家对斯诺克的热爱是共通的。）This is the true sportsmanship.Sportsmanship：体育精神不仅仅是赢比赛，更是对对手、观众，以及这项运动本身的尊重。22岁的吴宜泽，用这场 World Snooker Championship final，让全世界记住了他的名字。Maybe this is just the beginning. 也许未来，我们真的会看到 O'Sullivan 当年的那个预言成真：World number one.欢迎在评论区留言：Did you watch this incredible final?这场精彩的决赛，你看了吗？

Stephen Hendry won seven world snooker titles in nine years. He didn't just reach the top of snooker, he made the top his permanent address for almost a decade. But this conversation goes far beyond the trophies. We're revisiting this incredible chat with Stephen where he tells Jake and Damian what it actually felt like to be that dominant, why he deliberately kept himself cold and aloof from every rival, and what the relentless pursuit of winning ultimately cost him. And why if given the choice, he'd do it again.This is an unflinching portrait of what total dedication looks like from the inside — and one of the most honest conversations we've ever had on High Performance.
