Thailand's Ken Nanakorn kicks ass of Josh Dias, captures 1st Asian 10 Ball Crown

Thailand's Ken Nanakorn is the new Asian 10-Ball Champion

Thailand’s Ken Nanakorn nipped Josh Dias 5-4 to capture the 1st Asian 10-Ball Championship tournament at the Carouge Billiard Centre. In the early racks, Dias soared high like an eagle taking the lead with super precision pocketing and cue ball positioning. However, Nanakorn rallied to tie the score 4-4. In the final rack, a spectacular carom on the 10 ball by Nanakorn wrapped up the victory, turning his opponent Dias the mighty eagle into a skinned chicken.

In the battle for the 3rd place, China’s Liang Zi Yue defeated Filipino Joseph Sycip. Liang played brilliantly from the first rack until the fifth rack to demolish Sycip. The Philippine Billiard Club-Geneva would like to thank all the participants of the tournament and we would like to welcome the new players from Vietnam, Tony Truong and Steven Linh who played magnificently during the tournament.
