BAI CONTINUES HISTORIC RUN! | Victorian Plumbing UK Championship 2024

[@manchu-qu9mw]

Cool and calm, the crucial last fourth ball, Bai is focus and overcome the psychological intimidating disadvantage playing against men. She can truly inspire women players in future. Well done.

[@Tony-FN61]

It's playing ability not psychological

[@YCHTT]

And Scott had too much ego to lose to a woman refusing to forfeit the game when he needed 2 snookers to win even if he cleared the table with maximum points @8:04 He could be a real gentleman to go & congrats her for her victory but he chose not to.

[@eah8101]

Her progress in the last year or so as a snooker *competitor*, not just a player, someone who has not only the snooker ability but also the mental wherewithal to win matches, is now apparent -- it's rather remarkable, really -- the last red was an excellent pot, and her cue ball control and hence break building ability is much better today than in the past

[@YCHTT]

Just imagine if Scott didn't have too much ego to lose to a woman refusing to forfeit the game when he needed 2 snookers to win even if he cleared the table with maximum points @8:04 We would have never witnessed that great pot of last red IMAO

[@philipduckworth3062]

Wow what an amazing come back from 3-5 down. Solid couple of 50+breaks in last 3 frames. Great to watch. Well done Bai. Now the big Lebowski x

[@kevjards]

She's awesome.

[@johndean4765]

Kevyards don't get carried away now. She's got a good cue action and probably the best female player, but nowhere near good enough to challenge most of the men.

[@YCHTT]

@@johndean4765 Jealous of a woman? You can always be a trans LOL

[@lucybarney1]

That last red was a great shot ,👏👏👏

[@akmi2396]

Amazing good to see some challenging player for tour

[@adrianwright8685]

15 breaks over 50 in 3 matches, that's better than many men! She can certainly pot some balls. Needs to improve on safety.

[@kevinfang8600]

her safety looks good no? the speed on that yellow was great

[@DarraghQuinn-d8o]

Better than men who don't play snooker.

[@CalumnMcAulay]

If she get past lisowski that would be monumental achievement

[@fsxmantra]

Lisowski gonna pot two consecutive red balls in in a row.... 😂😂

[@Haerinx87]

Absolutely no hope

[@Rob-wh5is]

Jack I'm afraid has all the talent and should be in top three of the game but sadly something is just missing between the ears

[@david111davies]

its a massive ask, lets just hope she can at least make it competitive

[@pauldavies6419]

Wow. What a talent

[@ryanbluer6098]

Wow what an amazing player she is , I would love to play a few frames against her to learn a few things. Because playing better players only makes you better and she’s proving she’s as good as any man who plays snooker. Massive Respect to a Brilliant player of the game of snooker.

[@mldkenny]

Incredible win , what brilliant potting!

[@ryanbluer6098]

She has a perfect stance and form , her cue action is smooth and calculated and she has the perfect bridge hand. I think if she can get to the U.K. championship tv rounds she will inspire many more young women to take up the game. She’s proving that women can compete at the same level as the men and they should be treated equally. It would help if the winner of the women’s Championship was given a place by right to the televised rounds in the big tournaments, look at what Caitlin Clark has done for women’s basketball.

[@jonnygti]

She took those really really well. Good to see how far she can go

[@KeithPatmore]

Cracking result 👏

[@YCHTT]

Bai Yulu had already become the first woman this century to win back-to-back matches at a ranking event with victories over Jamie Jones and Farakh Ajaib. Now she will be on her way to enter to the last-32 (if she beats the next opponent) and make more history to inspire people especially women around the world!

[@davidong3776]

Congratulations Lu. You have my support always. The sky is the limit.

[@bobbo384]

Absolutely well done Bai

[@isaacjackson3801]

Could tell she was nervous towards the end. Deep exhaling and getting up from her shot to wipe her cue. Great win.

[@nicholasmartin787]

A much better title, that's what it is historic but not surprising from Bai. She just needs to hold her nerve when it comes to the top level players but a good tournament win against one will give her the confidence to probably see her go on to win a title in the next two years. I hope someone shows her the comments on these KZbin videos and shows her the spectators are rooting for her.

[@ravivarman2020]

@5:30 @6:30 and @7:30 match ball virtually. Well done

[@BiggyJimbo]

All very impressive shots under the pressure but I'm not sure you know what match ball means

[@zaneclone]

Lovely composed last frame from Bai. Very tidy amongst the balls and a good potter- all she needs is matches to take her game forward. Occasionally an odd shot choice or a bit casual in some areas- it's only matches that improves that... She seems to have everything else...

[@MetteC5]

Fantastic cue action, Bai! She's one to watch, looking forward!!

[@ledon26656]

So, so much skill and potential on display here. I wish her well, the sport needs more prominent women players who can compete with the men.

[@petedevon4450]

Why?

[@adrianwright8685]

This match, best of 11, had 3 different referees - is that a record?!

[@Rob-wh5is]

Possibly the real deal and yes her medium range potting game is amazing

[@rorykelly8275]

What a beautiful little talent

[@murphymoe9220]

Go Bai go go

[@leventdunord5204]

Nice break. Well deserved. 😊

[@Pavlu6a]

7:25 what a sweet cueing!! :***

[@The_0verlord2]

Not too sure why Scott kept playing thought that was taking the mick personally

[@Warren_Flatt]

i love her

[@muhammadmohdyusoff9938]

Bai vs zhao will be amazing

[@fergyspoolshots]

Great player.

[@Shad0wBanned77]

Cool customer. 7.5K in the bag and history made.

[@jeffreychongsathien]

She had to win 3 frames consecutively or she was out. Great play.

[@LanceDutrizac-p9t]

Bai performs open heart snooker surgery

[@jesseboy7951]

There is always a question of whether Scott had a very bad day or Bai had an amazing one. Or both? ;)

[@YCHTT]

Bai Yulu had already become the first woman this century to win back-to-back matches at a ranking event with victories over Jamie Jones and Farakh Ajaib. Now she will be on her way to enter to the last-32 (if she beats the next opponent) and make more history to inspire people especially women around the world! Plus she is the current Women's World championship winner. So give her the credit she deserves.

[@Kevin-mw9yl]

Always great to see a woman rise, within the ranks. Unfortunately, she is yet to muster the class of Jack, in the final.

[@MikeBarratt-lk3gt]

You mean to muster up the class of lisowski. yeah I don't think she will beat him. She will have to play her best to stay close but I could be wrong Jack is pretty up an down with forn.

[@BunSong-o8b]

Bai yulu only.

[@petervandersteen7893]

She plays realy well but if jack plays well she will lose

[@jesseboy7951]

I wonder what was the best female result while playing against men tournament-wise? Like, this is qualy, did women ever made it to main draw somewhere meaningful?

[@whodouthinkuare]

Bai had already made history by beating Jamie Jones in her previous match. She is the first lady in snooker to qualify for and win a match in a major snooker event.

[@VinJackson]

Nope, no woman got this far and neither won 3 straight matches until yesterday. It's very unlikely that she wins today's match against Lisowski, but regardless of what happens tonight, what she's done this week is remarkable.

😮

[@Bluem00n7]

She will get found out when playing actual decent players . All this woke BS

That EASILY can be a moment when we see her LAST time

[@xplaybwoix]

Huh ?

[@mikescorpio13]

@@xplaybwoix you think mens will let this slide without doing anything.... she have her chances but after that she better be a lot more better to win again vs mens.

[@lukebarton5075]

@xp Yeah I’m not too sure what they meant either.

[@physicsguybrian]

Donaldson so not wanting to lose to a female, carries on with ZERO chance to come back. LOL.

[@abdulrehmankhan4521]

It's unfair to her to play Lisowski next, I wished she had an easy opponent. She deserves to be in the event

[@johndean4765]

Unfair to play Jack??WHY? you can't have a successful snooker career only playing low ranked players.

[@Rickets1968]

Why should she deserve an easier draw? The rules are the same for everybody.

[@radams581]

Oh dear Donald Scotland 🙈

[@lancewood1410]

Scott basically just broke down. Simple as that.

[@rabailhaifer]

She beat Scot who's a top 16 player?? 🤔

[@carloscervantes911]

This tiny little cute thing ❤❤

[@slottyken]

Dreadfully dull 😑

[@saripdol1943]

that Donaldson guy is he an amateur or what? very poor standard for a pro player i must say lol 😅😅😅

[@Richard-cu8kl]

Not been the same since he was injured by the covid vaccine, unfortunately.

[@jackybogues2495]

She had 15 x 50+ breaks in her 3 matches. This is called unconscious bias of sexism on action

[@petervandersteen7893]

He was so bad unbelievable but credit to the woman

[@rabailhaifer]

Thai ladies have more bottle than the Thai men , apart from Noppon

She’s not Thai she’s Chinese lol

[@lukebarton5075]

@rab And what of Chinese players like this fine lady Bai Yulu?

[@adrianbjones]

She's Chinese

[@SteveNinetyski]

Good win, but excruciatingly slow. I know they're "taught" like that but jee wizz it isn't entertaining to watch someone get up and down from straightforward shots. How can she ever get in a flow playing so robotically?

[@rajeshgunesh]

Stan Moody is worse. He gets up and down for almost every shot, scratching his head or going round the table twice or thrice in between 🙄

[@PLANDerLinde99]

Damn it. I wanted Scott to win. Especially given he was 5-3 up. Bro was robbed in broad daylight

[@abubakarmehmood-bo3qk]

How so?

[@MikeBarratt-lk3gt]

How can you be robbed losing from 5 _3 up 😂

[@rajeshgunesh]

😂😂😂

[@ninobixio6156]

Bai made 7 50+ breaks in this game, Scott only made 1. I don't think Scott played very well to be honest. He's been very patchy just lately.

[@9Alessi8]

He is not worth supporting. Bai is worth more to be supported than this non famous Scot 😂😂

[@scottfreckle237]

last fourth? wtf are you talking about, she's not beating anyone these players are barely in the top 100, I could beat them

[@scottfreckle237]

constantly running out of position like every single female player does, she still plays at club level
