Jimmy Menguita, the champion in tip top form at yesterday's 3rd All-Asian 9 Ball TournamentJimmy Menguita of the Philippine Billiard Cub-Geneva captured the 3rd All Asian 9 Ball tournament at the Centre Carougeois de Billard yesterday by beating Ken Nanakorn of Thailand 6-4. It was a close neck to neck battle up to the fourth rack as both players were tied at 4-4. However, in the succeeding rack, Nanakorn badly missed his shot on the 7th ball and this error gave Jimmy Menguita a chance to run out the table and take the lead. Menguita then took the last rack to secure his victory.
In the battle for 3rd and 4th place, PBC’s Maurice Leonor edged out compatriot Joseph Sycip 6-4 in another see-saw battle. The decisive part of the match was in the final two rack where Leonor played spectacular pool with precise ball pocketing and positioning thus winning the game.
