World Championship 2015 – Qualifiers
All Chinese players at Grove, except for Cao Xin Long, are trying to qualify for the World Championship 2015. They all have to win 3 matches in Ponds Forge, Sheffield. All matches are best of 19 over two sessions. All but Lyu Chenwei progressed to round 2. Yu Delu, Li Hang, Liang Wenbo and Zhang Anda reached the final round, but only Anda will be at the Crucible after beating Wenbo by 10-9 in their last qualifying match. Li Hang also lost in the deciding frame. Heartbreak!
