Post-match summary and reflections
The national players performed as expected; Zhao Xintong showed an average performance, while Si Jiahui excelled.
Zhao Xintong struggled hard against a qualifier. His positioning, cue ball control, and attacking all had significant mistakes. If his opponent’s skill had been higher, Zhao would have been swept out early.
Si Jiahui demonstrated the level of a world top-16 player, shutting out his opponent and moving on to the next round.
Ali Carter’s unexpected loss is very disappointing; he was the runner-up at the Shanghai Masters and is currently ranked 16th in the world.
