Zhao Xintong addresses 20-month ban after winning world title and why it helped him
Zhao Xintong has revealed that he continued to practice four times per week when he was serving his suspension for violating betting and match-fixing rules. The World Snooker Championship winner was sidelined for 20 months after being caught up in the 2023 scandal along with nine other Chinese players.
Zhao did not directly fix a match himself, but he did accept the charges of being party to another player who fixed two matches and placed bets on matches.
