Of the three major competitions, the World Championships deserved to be the best, followed by the Masters and the British Championship. Ding Junhui is the second child, the third child is three times, and the boss is not. He always wanted to enjoy it once. This is human nature. But it is difficult to win the championship in the World Championships, and snooker can't win without winning the first place. Ding Junhui still has to work hard.
The World Championship is the most authoritative snooker tournament in the world. Every April, the kick-off lasts for more than a month. After the qualifying round, the runner-up and sixteen seeded players were arrested and killed as the first round, and the 19 tournament was a 10 winning system, which was equivalent to the championship and runner-up system in the open competition. Started a long time-consuming, labor-consuming and morale-consuming competition, grinding people! After the 16th National Congress, the second and third rounds were all 25 games 13 wins. The four rounds, that is, the semi-finals, are 33, with a 17 winning system; The five-round runner-up is the winning system of 35 games 18. The winner must win a total of 7 1 games to win the first prize. How difficult it is! There is no doubt that he is the first person in snooker today, and he deserves to be the king of snooker.
Ding Canjunhui won this crown jewel? He has this ability, and his past record has been proved, which is one of them. Second, he is in the prime of life and has rich experience in on-the-spot combat. He has all the technical ability, physical endurance and self-confidence. As long as he keeps forging ahead, he should win at least once. Third, his mentality, mood and mood are the places where he is criticized the most. There is indeed a gap between this and O 'Sullivan. Oddo is chic and domineering, Ding is a little childish, and he still shed tears on the court, which is not bold enough. Or O 'Sullivan said, Ding Junhui's defeat is like a "tent", even better than a "godfather", all in his mind. Overcome the cowardly character, eliminate all distractions, sweep all the way, have no distractions, and never encounter weakness or weakness, suffer losses, suffer losses and be surprised. As long as Ding Junhui overcomes these shortcomings and weaknesses, the champion of the World Championships will come naturally.
Of course, as a netizen who likes this sport, he should also support Ding Junhui more, at least don't scold him. Since his development, the country has always supported him, and the live broadcast of his events by CCTV news media has greatly inspired him. It is not easy for him to achieve his career and win glory for his country through struggle. More encouragement, less criticism and even sarcasm are what we should do. Whether he can realize his ambition or not, we should support him. Because the world championships are full of variables, lottery, self-play, opponent's performance and a little luck are all unknown. As long as Ding Junhui works hard enough, we will definitely support him, right?
The most important thing in the World Championships is the highest honor hall in the eyes of all snooker players, which is the highest among the three competitions in terms of competition system planning and bonus amount! In the cognition of snooker, snooker players who have won the world championship are generally called world champions!
In snooker, the World Championship, the British Championship and the Masters are also called the "three major competitions". It is generally believed that a player has achieved a "grand slam" by integrating the three major competitions. Of course, this title is not very official in history, so WST first gives the players who have assembled in the three major competitions a "crown mark" to symbolize the grand slam honor. Among the active players,
As we all know, all three events are very important, but which of the three events is the most important, just as the World Cup in football symbolizes the highest honor, so which one does snooker's highest honor symbolize? We seldom argue about this question, because friends who are familiar with snooker know very well that the World Championships is the only answer. Let's discuss this problem in detail.
We are very familiar with the title of emperor, and the seven crowns made us the first "billiards emperor". But why is Hendry called the "emperor" of snooker? We seldom discuss this problem. We only know that he is the emperor of billiards, and he is very powerful. He has 36 ranking champions.
In fact, I think seven world championships are an important measure. From the table below, we can see that Hendry is the leader of seven world champions. If he is not the emperor, who is the emperor? As early as 1980s, Davis created the miracle of six world champions. When Hendry broke this record in the 1990s, people had to be surprised by Hendry's dominance. When the time entered the 1990s, people began to constantly create the topic "Who is the greatest snooker player in history?" Because the historical position of the emperor is facing unprecedented challenges. At present, the record that belongs to the category of "magnitude" may only be that the total number of World Championships has not been broken by O 'Sullivan, and because of this, we can never draw the conclusion that O 'Sullivan is greater than Hendry.
This is an important position in the World Championships. Even if O 'Sullivan surpasses all the records of Hendry, as long as the total number of world champions is not surpassed, this problem will always exist.
Comparison of characteristics of three games 1, history
We have a preliminary understanding of the historical position of the World Championships, and then we have a general understanding of the history of the three competitions.
As can be seen from the following table, the World Championships began at 1927. Although the venue was frequently changed in the early days of its establishment, since 1977 moved into the Krusberg Theatre, Krusberg has been positioned as a "snooker shrine" in one fell swoop. Although the venue of the World Championships is threatened by China and other countries in recent years, WST has never let go of the possibility of moving the World Championships.
The Masters started at 1975, 48 years later than the World Championships, during which the venue kept changing. It was not until 1979 Masters moved to Wembley Convention Center that there was a long "settlement history", and it was not until 20 1 1 that it moved to other places, and the famous "Wembley Masters" ended here.
The British Championship started at 1977, 50 years later than the World Championships. The venue of the British Championship has also changed many times. Even after 200 1, the venue was temporarily changed because of the renovation of the venue.
It is not difficult to see that the history and background of the World Championships are longer, and Crucible has become a business card of snooker, just like Wembley and the Masters, so from this perspective, the World Championships are obviously more important.
2. Weight
On the other hand, the following table shows the events that won the championship prize of 200,000 pounds in the 20 19/20 season. From the table, we can clearly see that the World Championships topped the list with 500,000 pounds, the Masters lived alone with 250,000 pounds, the China Open ranked third with 225,000 pounds, and the British Championship tied for fourth with the Shanghai Masters with 200,000 pounds. Judging from the strength, even the third position in the British crown can't be kept.
However, this pattern will be further broken in the 2020/2 1 season, and the Saudi Masters with a prize of 500,000 pounds came into being. However, the juxtaposition with the world champion award has also attracted many criticisms. Some people think that WST card's bonus ceiling in the Saudi Masters is to maintain the position of "the first in history" in the World Championships, and it is absolutely not allowed to surpass the World Championships. This statement makes sense, because Saudi Arabia, like China, has a lot of money. By then, the weight of the British Championship will drop to the fifth place and the Masters will drop to the third place, but the World Championships will still maintain the position of 1.
On the other hand, the prize money of the World Championships is directly proportional to its super-long competition. The longer the competition system, the greater the test for the players, and the more it can reflect a player's comprehensive ability. As the finale of the season, the World Championships play a decisive role in players' world ranking and relegation trend. Therefore, the importance of the World Championships is self-evident. For WST, the Masters and the British Championship can be "downgraded", but not the World Championships.
Rocket: You can return everything except the World Championships. As we all know, the Rockets are maverick, and O 'Sullivan should have the highest frequency of retiring or abandoning the game among active players. He has dropped out of the British Championship and Masters (this year), but did you hear that he gave up signing up for the World Championships? Don't!
The following table shows more than 8 events that O 'Sullivan participated in during the 2009-20 18 season and 10 period, and the rest events did not reach this order of magnitude.
We can see that O 'Sullivan withdrew from the British Championship twice, 1 Masters, and won twice, 1 Welsh Open, but the only time he was full-time was the World Championships. There is a special case. O 'Sullivan "took a vacation" for a whole season on 20 12/ 13, but he finally came back at the World Championships and won the championship magically.
I think O 'Sullivan's attitude towards the World Championships can basically explain the importance of the World Championships.
Ding Junhui Finally, I have to mention Ding Junhui. As the iconic figure of China snooker, Ding Junhui's performance in the three major competitions is remarkable, especially the triple crown in the British Championship, which is rare in history. He also got his hands on the master championship, but he has not yet reached the top of the World Championships.
It is precisely because of this small shortcoming that Ding Junhui has been ridiculed by some domestic athletes. On the other hand, it is precisely because the World Championships are the most important events that fans hate Ding Junhui's "tasks that must be completed".
Summary: A trip to the World Championships will make the world famous. To sum up, the World Championships have an unshakable position in snooker and a long history. WST is striving to maintain its position as the "first event", but in terms of bonuses, it may be an inevitable trend that the World Championships will be surpassed.
On the whole, the status of the three competitions, the World Masters British Championship! Players like Dortmund, Docherty, Aberton and Bingham can go down in history as long as they have left their names in the World Championships.

The World Championship is the oldest snooker tournament. Influence, total bonus and professional ranking points are all the most important events in snooker, so the World Snooker Championship is more important.
Snooker World Championship is the oldest event in the history of billiards. From the perspective of influence, bonus scale and professional points, the annual world championship is the highest level of snooker competition, so it is the most important and influential competition. Winning the world championship is the dream of snooker players all over the world. There are many people participating in this competition, and the experts are like clouds, representing the highest level of confrontation in the world.
I like watching Selby and Bingham's personality process.
Very elegant and comfortable.
What my friend said is really right. Only those who have won the World Championships are world champions, while the Masters and British Championships are the most important events outside the World Championships, and the Grand Slam also came from here, and its historical position is there. There is no difference between the British Championship and the Masters, because one is an invitational tournament and the other is a ranking tournament.
Like the football World Cup, the Champions League and the Olympic champion, which is more important?
Snooker World Championship is the highest level competition.
