7 April 2014 One Comment

The World Championship 2014 Qualifiers – still played in a tiered format – run from April 8 till April 16, at Pond Forge, Sheffield. All Grove players, except for Neil and Judd, who are seeded, are involved. Zhang Anda, Cao Xinlong, Chen Zhe, Li Hang and Li Yan all won their matches in Round 1. Unfortunately Round 2 was less successful as only Li Yan managed to go through and then win in Round 3. Li Yan and Wenbo were one match away from the Crucible but couldn’t make it.
