Trivia:
Raised by his grandmother since the age of 2, Wu began playing eight-ball the age of 10 at his family-run pool hall. When he became serious about pool, his grandmother shuttle him from one competition venue to another on her scooter.
In 2005, after only six years of playing, Wu became the youngest player (at 16 years, 5 months old) ever to win the WPA World Nine-ball Championship. He was the top seed at the 2006 Men's Championship, but lost in the quarter-final round to Ronato Alcano of the Philippines.
Wu also won the 2005 WPA World Eight-ball Championship, making him the first person to hold the World Nine-ball and Eight-ball WPA titles in the same year. Previously, he was the runner-up at the 2004 Juniors Nine-ball World Championship.
In 2006, he lost 27kg thanks to a diet of congee, vegetables and meat, along with a daily jog of 2km to 4km.
