The World Championships come to China?Ding Junhui: Players want to win titles on home soil, which is different

During this year's World Snooker Championships, seven-time World champion Hendry and China's Ding Junhui discussed whether the World Championship should be moved from the Crucible。Hendry said he does not want the World snooker Championship to leave the Crucible, while Ding Junhui believes players from every country want to win the world title on home soil。

Hendry: I'm older, I don't agree with the World Championship moving away from the Crucible, I love the Crucible, I love the atmosphere, especially the single table in the final, the atmosphere off the court is fantastic。But I also understand that nowadays players want higher prize money, what do you think?

Ding Junhui: The history of the World championships belongs to the Crucible. I know you have won seven titles at the Crucible。But for new markets, a new generation is coming up and they will want to go into the Crucible and maybe watch a few more games here, but there may be more opportunities to move somewhere else, whether it's Asian countries or other countries。

Hendry: Do you want the World Championships to move to China?

Ding Junhui: Absolutely, ha ha。Players in every country want to win the world championship on home soil, which is different。

Hendry: If the World Championships really come to China, you will have more pressure?

Ding Junhui: I hope so. I haven't felt such pressure before. I want to experience it。
