2019 China Open 9ball/9ft (5-8 Sep) Winner $40K

Has Shane ever beaten Wu?
Brutal leave on the break as there was nowhere to push out. Good match though.
The two matchups in FargoRate are 11-7 Wu (2019 US Open) and 11-7 Shane (2014 China Open)
Wow, what a match! Wu wins hill hill 11-10 in a match that could have gone either way.
Hard for Shane to recover from two consecutive misses on 1. But I think the turning point was rack 8 when Shane missed that 3.
The difference I see is that Wu handled the pressure slightly better than Shane. Capitalised better on mistakes and made the big shots.
Wu moves on to final to try to win this event for 2nd time.
Next up we have the other guys. Couple of young kids Kaci and Raga who have both never been in semis of a major WPA event before

Mike,
Wu beat Shane in W10B 2008 but maybe that is old data so not in your database.

Ya but Wu stiffed a pretty easy shot on the 7 that would've ended the match , and that shot he missed wasn't that hard of a shot I thought he would make that 1 and at minimum keep control of the table ,

Not true he had plenty of places to push too he took the shot because it wasn't that hard
1
The only way he could have shot would leave an easy kick or jump.
i don't know about easy , he could have just pushed a little bit off that ball force the kick wasn't like the ball was hung in the pocket, the fact is most players take that shot and make it I was surprised he missed it

Tough shot, tough push out. With the 1 sitting toward the top cushion like that he had to cut it really thin kicking off that side cushion to make it. Hard to judge that thin of a hit kicking at a ball.
Unbelievable
