On the evening of June 16, Beijing time, British media issued a statement saying that the competition time of the qualifying match of the Snooker World Championships was determined and scheduled to be held from July 21 to 28.
In fact, long before the global epidemic, the snooker World Championship qualifiers will usher in reform in 2020. WST will abandon the previous 128-person parallel competition system and divide the game into 4 rounds: 16 world billiards invited players and 48 people ranked lowest in the world to enter the first round; 32 people who won the first round and 32 people ranked lowest in the remaining to enter the second round; 32 people who won the second round and 32 people ranked lowest in the second round; 32 people who won the second round and 32 people ranked lowest in the remaining to enter the third round; 32 people who won the third round confronted in the third round, and 16 people who won the third round competed in the second round.
Due to the impact of the epidemic, the World Championships qualifiers have changed the competition system again based on the original reforms. The qualifiers that were previously maintained will be changed to 6 in the first three rounds and 10 in the fourth round. The shorter number of games means more accidents, and more newcomers may use this special year to usher in the debut of Cruzburg.
