Everything seems to be going well. Ding Junhui, like O 'Sullivan, won the World Youth Championship at the age of 15 and stepped onto the highest hall of snooker step by step. However, O 'Sullivan experienced hardships that Ding Junhui could not imagine. Today, Ding Junhui is fighting all over the world under the care of his parents, while O 'Sullivan, who is 19 years old, is in a nightmare: his father was sentenced to 18 years in prison for committing murder; Mother was sentenced to one year's imprisonment for tax evasion; And his sister, who deals with drugs all day. When he was a teenager, he didn't know how to vent his anguish. He indulged himself and sought solace from alcohol, marijuana and rock music. So in 1994-98, he only won the British Open (1994), the Asian Championship (1996), the German Open (1996) and the Scottish Open (1998). It is hard to imagine how he got out of this nightmare, perhaps not out, but chose to forget. In any case, people as sharp as knives are back, like phoenix nirvana. He really entered the harvest period of his career: he won the championship of China Open (1999,2000); Scottish Open (2000), British Championship (200 1), European Open (2003), Irish Open (2003, 2005) and Welsh Open (2004, 2005). The most important thing is to win the world championship title of the highest hall in the world of snooker three times: in 2006, 5438+0, 18- 14 defeated Higgins, in 2004 18-8 easily defeated Dortmund, and in 2008 18-8 defeated Arikat. o'sullivan
What China fans can't forget is that in the final of Wembley Masters on June 5438+ 10, 2007, Ding Junhui of 19 cried on the battlefield because he was dissatisfied with the abuse of fans, and O 'Sullivan, 32, comforted Xiaohui who was crying. After the game, O 'Sullivan did not shake hands with Xiaohui regularly, but went up and hugged the China teenager. At this time, the aggrieved Xiaohui let the Rockets see themselves in those days, because family relationships were also abused by fans on the court. O 'Sullivan said: "I was booed by fans many times in the game, but it was nothing." Only by persisting in such a difficult time can we win the final victory.
