Joseph Sycip demolished Leo Barroga 5-2 to bag the 32nd edition of the Asian 9-Ball Tournament at the La Sphere Billiard Center.  Barroga came out strong in
the first to racks advancing 2-0.  However, Sycip came back from behind by taking the next 2 racks to equalize the score.  Then, the fired-up Sycip took the next three straight racks to put the icing on the cake.

The battle for 3rd place was won by Isabella Pacchiani who nipped Bong Malabonga 3-2.  It was a neck-to-neck race that saw both players equally taking two racks each. However, in the final rack, Pacchiani pocketed a double bank shot on the 9 ball to win the game.

The next tournament is scheduled on the 21th of April.
