Jimmy Menguita wins 24th Asian 9-Ball Tour

Veteran pool player Jimmy Menguita crushed Joseph Sycip 7-2 in today's finals of the 24th Asian 9-Ball Tournament which was held at the Centre Carougeois de Billiard. Menguita advanced quickly by taking the first three racks. But it was really Menguita's perfect offensive plays and defensive safeties which limited his opponent to just two racks.

The battle for the 3rd place was more of a neck-to-neck battle as PJ Schatz beat Russel Alata 5-4.

PJ Schatz who is one of the top women players in the league, played her best by employing defensive safeties to finally win the match.
