Andy Segal - 2012 WPA World Artistic Pool Champion
2012 WPA World Artistic Pool Championship
The WPA World Artistic Pool Championship was held March 8 – 11, 2012 at the Allen Hopkins Super Billiards Expo in Oaks, PA. 36 players competed from around the world for 9 WPA World Artistic Pool Championship titles.
Nick Nikolaidis (Canada) defeated Jamey Gray (USA) in one of 2 semifinal matches by a very close score of 119 to 117. In the other semifinal match Andy Segal (USA) defeated Sebastian Giumelli (Argentina) 102 to 51. The finals match pitted two great players against each other – Andy “The Magic Man” Segal and Nick “Quick Nick” Nikolaidis. For the second year in a row Andy has proven why he is still the number one ranked artistic pool player in the world, besting Nick with focused precision by a score of 106 to 90.
The 2012 WPA World Artistic Pool Discipline Champions were Jimmy Glanville (USA) in Trick/Fancy Shots, Tim Chin (USA) in Special Arts, Wayne Parker (Africa) in Draw Shots, Jamie Moody (USA) in Follow Shots, Jamey Gray (USA) in Bank/Kick Shots and Stroke Shots, Abram Diaz (USA) in Jump Shots, and Andy Segal (USA) in Masse Shots. Event players voted on the Sportsmanship Award, with one of the youngest players ever to compete, Iulian Cernatinschi (USA) becoming the special recipient. Abram Diaz also earned a “special spirit” award for a unique display of professional character during his quarterfinal match loss to Sebastian Giumelli.
Special thanks goes to Allen Hopkins for another super event at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center new location and to the event sponsors: WPA (World Pool Billiard Association), Allen Hopkins Productions, Dr. Cue Promotions, Diamond Tables, Simonis Cloth, Aramith Pool Balls, Jason Lynch (streaming services), APTSA (player led organization board) and the WPA Artistic Pool Division directors for all of their help in running this official WPA World Championship.
