Thailand’s Ken Nanakorn beat Philippines' Jimmy Menguita 5-3 in yesterday’s 8th All Asian 9 Ball Tournament at the Centre Carougeois de Billard. The Thai was in his flawless form as he came all out to capture the early lead 2-0. But Menquita tried to catch up by taking the next rack to the delight of the audience. However, Nanakorn persisted and kept on with his superb ball pocketing and brilliant safeties to secure the championship trophy.

In the battle for the 3rd place, Philippines' Val Arceo trashed Vietnam's Tony Truong 5-2 in a lop-sided battle. Arceo, who won the last two Asian Tours for both 8 and 9 Ball played perfect billiards as he easily moved on to take the 3rd place.

The PBC-Geneva thanks everyone who participated in this tournament and invites more Asians to join the next tournament this autumn.
