Zhao Xintong and Zhang Anda will contest the final of the World Grand Prix on Sunday after winning through the first all-Chinese semi-final line-up in snooker ranking event history.<\/p>\n
In the first semi-final, Zhang secured a thrilling 6-5 victory over Zhou Yuelong on the final black at the Kai Tak Arena in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n
Zhao then claimed four of the final five frames to beat Xiao Guodong 6-3 and reach a first ranking final since becoming China’s first world champion last May.<\/p>\n
The pair will now return on Sunday to contest just the third all-Chinese ranking event final.<\/p>\n
“I am very proud to be one of four Chinese semi-finalists – I believe in the future there will be more young Chinese players and it will only get better,” Zhang told the World Snooker Tour website after his nervy win.<\/p>\n
