Ding Junhui, who was absent from the game, was very helpless: it's not that he didn't want to play, but the visa time was really too short. You may miss another one after playing this one. Alas, it turns out that Ding Junhui's British visa has expired. When he came back to play Wuxi Classic, he applied for a new visa. Although it took a long time to apply for a visa, he didn't return his passport until the day before.
If you want to apply for a new British visa after the Australian Open, the time is also very tight, which may affect the next tense European competition. ? I returned it almost as soon as I got home from the Australian competition, basically around July 20. I have a game in England on August 10, so I have to go back early. If there is any problem then, it will be very troublesome. ? Ding Junhui explained.
The Australian tournament without Ding Junhui is even more bleak. Only seven of the world's top 16 players participated in the competition, and the absent stars included Trump, Maguire, Higgins and Allen. O 'Sullivan, who made a perfect comeback and won the fifth world championship, was not on the list.
