Day Three – ZIELINSKI TRIUMPHANT IN TREVISO!
Reporter: Luke Riches on behalf of the EPBF

POLAND’S WIKTOR ZIELINSKI took the honours in the final Dynamic Billiard
Euro Tour of the year as he defeated Mats Schjetne of Norway 9-4 in the
championship match at the BHR Treviso Hotel in the northern Italian
city. It was the 20 year-old’s second Euro Tour title, his first coming
in the same venue in 2017 when Zielinski became the youngest ever player
to win an ET title.
“Treviso is a really nice place for me; I’ve won two Euro Tours here
now, I met my girlfriend here, so yes, I really like this place!’
commented a delighted Zielinski.
“My girlfriend really helped me a lot here as I was playing five matches
a day for two days in a row and I didn’t have time to eat so she bought
me some pizza so I’m really thankful to her.
“I lost my first match of the tournament and was on the losers’ side so
I had to win five matches yesterday so I was exhausted but I felt better
today though. I felt I could have been out of the event yesterday so
this morning I thought, ‘let’s see what happens’”, he added.
Seemingly from a never-ending production line of top-drawer Polish
players, Zielinski always had too much for his opponent in the final.
Ironically, Zielinski lost his opening match of the tournament to local
player Filippo Cataldi, but from there he put his foot down.
Share this article on FaceBook - "Read More..." for the details.
A win 9-5 win over Ralf Souquet put him into the single elimination last
32 where he beat Fedor Gorst 9-8. The winning shot, a 3/9 combination
into the centre pocket saw the 9-ball wobble in the jaws before rolling
across the table and falling into the bag opposite.
A comfortable win over countryman Daniel Maciol put him into the last
eight before successive 9-8 victories against Alexander Kazakis and
Francisco Sanchez Ruiz advanced him to the final. In fact, he derailed
Sanchez Ruiz’s ambition of winning three consecutive Euro Tour titles,
squeaking through by the narrowest of margins.
Schjetne enjoyed some high-quality wins en route to the final defeating
the likes of Mariusz Skoneczny before going down to Dennis Grabe in the
winners’ qualification round. A do-or-die 9-8 win over the highly
commendable teenager Bojana Sarac saw him through to the last 32.
Wins over Nikos Ekonomopoulos, Francesco Candela and Sergey Lutsker put
him into the semi-final where he also defeated a Spaniard in the last
four; this time David Alcaide by a 9-6 margin.
The final was finely poised at 4-3 to Zielinski with Schjetne breaking,
but the Norwegian failed to make contact with the object ball kicking
off the side rail and Zielinski ran out to go 5-3. The Pole capitalised
on it as he ran the next to put three racks between him and his
opponent.
A dry break from Schjetne cost him dearly in the tenth game as Zielinski
cleared the table to continue his sprint to the line at 7-3. The next
rack was make or break for Schjetne and both players executed some
high-quality safeties but it was the Pole who prevailed to reach the
hill.
Schjetne showed some great heart to run out the next but it was too big
a gap to bridge as the young Polish star composed himself after a solid
break shot to take his second Euro Tour title.
For Mats Schjetne, it was his best ever finish in a Euro Tour event
following three previous semi-final appearances; “Right now it feels a
little bad but tomorrow it will feel awesome I hope so! Wiktor played
almost perfect in the final and there wasn’t much I could do. I’ve had a
lot of support though, and it’s been an amazing ride this week.”
Play continues tomorrow, Sunday, in the third and final event of the
Predator Ladies Euro Tour. Play will commence at 9.00 local time with
the losers’ qualification round, followed by the last 16 and plays to a
conclusion on Sunday evening.

Day Two – DOWN TO THE FINAL 16
Reporter: Luke Riches on behalf of the EPBF
Photography: ©EPBF
PLAY CONTINUED TODAY in Treviso as 181 starters were reduced down to 16
players in the final Euro Tour event on the 2021 schedule. With a very
strong field in attendance, there were some big names who left the event
prematurely.
Joshua Filler was beaten in the losers’ qualification round, a victim of
Spain’s Jose Luis Delgado. Likewise, veteran Niels Feijen fell by the
wayside in the last 32 at the hands of Germany’s up-and-coming Tobias
Bongers. Other stars on their way home include 2019 WPA World Champion
Fedor Gorst, Dennis Grabe and two-time WPA World Champion Thorsten
Hohmann.
Euro Tour No.1 ranked player, Francisco Sanchez Ruiz (Spain) is enjoying
another terrific run here in Italy as he goes for his third consecutive
ET championship, a feat not achieved since Oliver Ortmann took down four
consecutive titles 27 years ago. The Spaniard has breezed through the
winners’ side and now faces a very strong Max Lechner in the last 16.
There are three Poles in the top half of the draw; Mieszko Fortunski
faces the ever-dangerous Swiss/Filipino Ronnie Regli while the
fast-improving Daniel Maciol faces compatriot Wiktor Zielinski. It’s
been well over two years since a Polish player won a Euro Tour
championship - Konrad Juszczyszyn at this same venue – which could be
some sort of omen.
Two stand-out matches in the bottom half of the drawer are David
Alcaide, preparing for the Mosconi Cup in a couple of weeks, against
Austria’s Mario He and two of the brightest young talents on the tour.
Hungary’s Oliver Szolnoki has had a real break-out year and he faces
young Serbian Aleksa Pecelj who is coming off a terrific run of form,
having finished runner-up to Sanchez Ruiz last time out in Turkey and
then winning the gold in the Men’s Under 23 division at the recent
European Championships.
Play resumes on Saturday 26th November at 12 midday local time with the
final getting underway at 17.30.
Starting tomorrow is the third and final event of the Predator Ladies
Euro Tour. An outstanding field of 50 players has assembled including
the likes of Kristina Tkach, Margareta Fefilova, Bojana Sarac, who made
it through to the 33-48 round in the men’s event this week, as well as
No.1 ranked player Olivia Zalewska of Poland. The ladies’ event
concludes on Sunday.

Day One – ACTION COMPLETE IN FINAL 2021 TOUR STOP
Reporter: Luke Riches on behalf of the EPBF
Photography: ©EPBF
WITH 181 PLAYERS gathered at the BHR Treviso Hotel in Northern Italy,
the final stop on the 2021 Euro Tour schedule got underway today
(Thursday). Due to the disastrous effects of Covid, this is the fourth
tournament on the tour since this same event in February 2020. That
said, a full calendar is in place of 2022.
All eyes this week have been on the current Euro Tour No.1, Spain’s
Francisco Sanchez Ruiz who is going for his third consecutive ET title,
and, should he be successful, he would be the first man to achieve that
feat since Oliver Ortmann won four back-to-back championships way back
in 1994.
The Spaniard completed just one match today; a comfortable 9-3 win over
Christos Papageorgiou of Greece to set up a round two match against
Italy’s Alessandro Giordani tomorrow. All the big guns are intact in
what is a stellar field when play recommences at 9.00 on Friday morning.
Meanwhile, the third and final event of 2021 gets underway on Saturday
on the Predator Ladies Euro Tour and some of the competitors have been
readying themselves by playing in the men’s event.
There are seven rounds of matches here on Friday as the field play down
to the last 16 which plays to a conclusion on Saturday 27th November.
All the matches can be viewed live at www.kozoom.com
Results, live scoring and draw are available at www.epbf.com
