Zhao Xintong vs. Jamie Clarke: Jamie Clarke All Set To Make It To Next Round

Zhao Xintong and Jamie Clarke are competing against one other in World Championship Round 32, and only one will move to the following round. The match will take place at the Crucible Theatre on April 17, 2022. (Sheffield).

Zhao Xintong – The Cyclone

In 2022, he advanced to the finals of the German Masters, defeating seasoned pros such as Mark Williams, Tom Ford, reigning champion Judd Trump, and Ricky Walden. There, he met fellow professional and countryman Yan Bingtao, whom he defeated by a score of 9-0 to win his second ranking championship in less than two months. In doing so, he became just the third player in history to whitewash a player in a ranking event final; the previous two were Steve Davis and Neil Robertson.

Jamie Clarke - The Unstoppable

He qualified for the 2020 World Snooker Championship for the first time, defeating Mark Allen 10–8 in the first round despite Allen making 5 centuries. Clarke was involved in a contentious incident during his second-round match against Anthony McGill. Clarke was up 7–2 when McGill protested directly to him about being in his eye line many times throughout the match when he was going down on a stroke. Referee Jan Verhaas stepped in, although Clarke appeared unsettled after winning the frame.

Clarke's World Snooker Championship campaign in 2021 ended similarly. He led Mark Davis 7-2 after the first session in the final qualifying round, but Davis won seven frames in a spin in the second session, and Clarke lost 8–10.
