Before the top 8 matchup, Yang Guohuang, who defeated the American master Fan Boning with a shock, Wu Kunlin played 5 consecutive rounds at the beginning of the match, showing excellent ability to continue the game. It was not until the sixth round that the opponent made an offensive error on the 2nd ball to play Chance.
