| CHINA OPEN - PRIMED AND READY FOR BATTLE |
Posted on Thursday, May 16 2013 @ 09:53:53 UTC By admin |
The China Open Shanghai Pudong Yuanshen Stadium 655 Yuanshen Road Pudong New Area Shanghai China www.my147.com www.top147.com - Brackets: Men / Women www.wpapool.com - Live scoring Extras:: Live stream - Forum chat
Thursday-Sunday 12-19 May 2013
THE CHINA OPEN BEGINS THURSDAY WITH AN ALL STAR CAST PROMISING ONE OF THE YEAR'S TOUGHEST SLUGFESTS As in much of the world, the sport of professional pool has had to endure its share of austerity lately. Which is why as over 100 of the best men and women players from around the globe gathered today in Shanghai to prepare for Thursday’s opening day of the China Open 9-ball Championship, the mood among the gathered throng of cue artists was decidedly upbeat.
For professional pool players China is clearly their Shangri-La. This is a country where the sport of pool gets real backing from the government and real attention from legions of fans. Big tournaments like the China Open are shown on national television with viewing audiences numbering over 100 million people. Massive pool halls abound and more are being built. The women players especially are legitimate sporting celebrities. Just the other night China’s CCTV state television aired a one hour documentary in prime time on female pool stars Fu Xiaofang and Liu Shasha. Yes, you read that right; a pool documentary aired nationwide at peak viewing hours.
Now in its fifth year, the China Open, which kicks off Thursday May 16th at the Shanghai Pudong Yuanshen Stadium, has quickly established itself as one of the premier events in the professional pool calendar. The tournament, which is a major ranking event of the World Pool and Billiard Association(WPA), features both a men’s and women’s tournament. The men’s event offers $176,600 in prize money with $40,000 going to the winner. The women’s tournament, which is played at the same time, has $125,600 on offer with $30,000 going to the eventual champion.

That this is going to be one of the toughest slogs of the year in pool is without question and, for the best players on the planet, they wouldn’t have it any other way. One could literally feel the excitement buzzing through today’s players meeting and press conference at the Wyndham Plaza Royale Oriental hotel in smog covered Shanghai. As far as everyone was concerned, the China Open felt just like a world championship.
Defending men’s champion Dennis Orcollo knows all too well how difficult the task can be. The Filipino great had to put in yeoman’s effort in 2012 and, even then that almost wasn’t enough. After brilliantly disposing of Taiwan’s Lu Hui Chan in the final Orcollo remarked that the win represented perhaps his greatest achievement in pool. 9 months on he still feels the same way.
“This tournament is one of the hardest to win,” Orcollo said. “Last year was very difficult. I don’t know how I won it because I almost got knocked out several times. Of all the tournaments I won, winning the China Open is one of my top achievements. And this year there are more top players so it will be very difficult to win again. I will just try my best.”
World 9-ball Champion Darren Appleton, himself one of the greatest hard core players of this or any generation, concurred. The Brit has had success all over the world but not yet in China.
“This tournament is one of the toughest to win for players from outside China,” Appleton said. “The tables are different, the food is different, the time zones, everything. Plus you’ve only got 64 players in the field which is a lot less then we normally play. And out of those 64 players, maybe 40 can win the thing. In most tournaments, you have some time to get in the groove, but in this event, you can draw a top player in the very first round and find yourself on your way home in a hurry. It’s not called a world championship but it’s like a world championship.”
A quick glance at the players list(below) for this year’s event and you quickly understand Appleton’s sentiment. The line up is literally a who’s who of pool’s greats. Even former two-time double world champion Wu Jia Jing(formerly Wu Chia Ching) has found his way back to competitive pool after winning one of the tough qualifiers earlier this week. Wu now plays for China.
On the women’s side defending champion Kelly Fisher is under no illusions about the task at hand. The WPA World number one has dominated the women’s game for the last year and half, and with her recent win at the Amway Cup in Taipei in March, she is the odds on favorite this week. But she knows at this level, there are zero guarantees and repeating as champion is a tall order indeed.
“There are a lot of dangerous players in this tournament,” Fisher said. “I just take it one rack at a time.”
Despite being defending champion Fisher received little attention at today’s press conference. Nearly all the media glare shined down upon the handful of Chinese superstars, whose celebrity status is made up of one part athlete and another part cute supermodel. China’s number 1 Fu Xiaofang, Liu Shasha, Chen Siming and the legend Pan Xiaoting all answered plenty of questions and posed for endless photos. The only other foreign player who could compare in the glamor department is Korea’s Ga Young Kim. Kim, who speaks fluent Mandarin, is clearly a darling of the Chinese media.
While the Chinese ladies would surely seem to have a big advantage on home soil, the pressure in which the play under is immense, not only from their association but also from their legions of fans. The spotlight is so intense that the prying goes well beyond the pool table. One reporter quizzed the legend Pan Xiaoting about whether she was planning to release a CD of songs for her adoring public.
“No, I have no plans to record a CD,” Pan said. “9-ball is my profession.”
The women start with 48 players divided into eight groups of six players, with the top two progressing to the final 16, which is then single elimination. The total prize fund for the women is $124,000 with $30,000 going to the eventual champion
The men’s event has 64 players playing in eight groups of 8, double elimination, alternate break with four players progressing from each group to the final 32, which is then a straight knockout. The men’s event offers $178, 000 in prize money with $40,000 going to the winner.
Action gets underway in the group stages at 1:30pm local time ( GMT +8 ).
"l LOVE WINNING. I LOVE THE FEELING"
SET TO DEFEND HER CHINA OPEN TITLE THIS WEEK IN SHANGHAI, KELLY FISHER REFLECTS ON AN AMAZING 2012, AND HER EXPECTATIONS FOR 2013 When Great Britain’s Kelly Fisher won the 2012 China Open 9-ball in Shanghai last September, she knew straight away that she now sat on the mountain top of women’s professional pool.
The realization, however, didn’t stem from just this one impressive victory through a stacked field of the world’s best women players. A few weeks earlier she had won the Women’s World 9-ball Championship in the north eastern Chinese city of Shenyang with a marvellous all-around performance. Prior to that, in August, 2011 Fisher nabbed the Women’s World 10-ball Championship in Manila. After years of toil, with boat loads of failure and near misses in far away lands, Fisher had not only broken through to the winners circle, but was now dominating women’s professional pool.
“This is my peak in pool,” an elated Fisher said right after her 9-2 drubbing of China’s Zhou Doudou in the final of the 2012 China Open. “I played for 8 years in the States and I was always asking myself, ‘Was it going to happen? Could I win the big international events?’ I knew I could do it. But actually doing it is another thing”
Fisher’s two victories in China, which led her to be named WPA 2012 Player of the Year, were extra special for the 34 year old because of how brutally difficult it can be for foreigners to win in the world’s most populous nation. Foreigners here have to contend with jet lag, unfamiliar cultural conditions such as the language and food. In addition the women’s game is massively popular in China, with its players like the legend Pan Xiaoting, 2010 World 9-ball champion Fu Xiaofang, and 2009 World 9-ball Champion Lui Sasha enjoying celebrity status wherever they go. Tournaments are aired on national television and Chinese fans are heavily partisan towards one of their own. The pressure can be daunting.
Fisher, though, looked at the obstacles as nothing more than challenges to overcome. She returned again and again to China over the last few years, tasted plenty of defeat, spent lots of her own money, time and effort all with the conviction that, with enough hard work, success would eventually come.
“For a long time I seemed to struggle playing in Asia,” Fisher said recently. “But maybe due to the amount of events there now I have become accustomed to it and I seem to have managed to bring my ‘A’ game here. In China the events are always first class and very well organized. The players are always treated really well. The live TV coverage along with the fans is like nowhere else in the world.
“Also, there are a number of tough opponents in China. We have so many great players now and the standard is so high. Which is great for the game. But I try not to think too much of my opponent and focus more on my game.”
Fisher has clearly kept that focus through the down months that are standard for professional pool at the end and beginning of the calendar year. This past March Fisher let it be known to the rest of women’s pool that she plans on continuing her walk on the high wire of success in 2013. She won the prestigious Amway Cup in Taiwan with a come from behind 11-8 win in the final over Austria’s Jasmin Ouschan . Fisher cruised through the field untouched winning an amazing 28 of 35 total games.
“I was so surprised and thrilled to have won the Amway. It was the big event that I hadn't won and I really wanted to get that title under my belt.”
Fisher’s “surprise” at winning stemmed from some recent personal obstacles that she has had to overcome. Her partner, Val Finnie, was denied a US green card. After living in North Carolina in the USA for 9 years, the pair packed up and moved to Finnie’s hometown of Dumfries, Scotland.
“It was a big move,” Fisher said. “Scotland is cold. After living in North Carolina for so many years, it’s not easy to get used to. I have got my own table all set up for practice, which wasn't that easy. I've also been practicing with some of the British male players like Chris Melling and Michael Valentine.”
Then in January, Fisher’s father passed away. Fisher had been close with her dad, always sharing her victories and defeats with him over Skype no matter where in the world she was playing. In Taiwan, Fisher said she knew her dad was watching over her, and she used it to her advantage.
“I went into the event with very little expectations of doing so, due to my father’s passing and moving and no table to practice. So it really meant a great deal to me to win. It's one of my favorite events and I felt my dad with me all the way.”
Fisher realizes that with so much recent success, all eyes will be on her this week in Shanghai to hold on to her China Open title and world number 1 ranking, and continue her amazing streak. She knows better than anyone, however, just how fleeting success can be in the professional game. As usual with the affable Brit, she knows the key to success is to keep things in perspective.
“Obviously I am thrilled with the year I had in 2012. I always believed I could do it but it was still amazing to actually pull it off. I played solid throughout the year and really dug in deep. Things went my way and I managed to take advantage of that.
“I love winning. I love the feeling. I really want to try and keep that going for as long as I can. My ambition now is to try and retain some of my titles and keep that number 1 spot. I do realize that this is a high ambition with the standard of play but it sure would be nice.
“I would love nothing more than to retain my (China Open) title and I know it's possible and I'm capable to do so. However, I'm just going to go into the event hoping to play well and take it one match at a time and try my best. I don't want to put any pressure on myself, so I can only give my all and see what happens.”
*The 2013 China Open will be held in Shanghai, China from May 12-19 and is sanctioned by the World Pool & Billiard Association(WPA). 64 men and 48 women will compete in separate 9-ball events. The China Open is a WPA ranking event. The main event will begin on May 16 and run through May 19.
