World Games gold medals for Fisher, Jaspers, Souquet and Bond.
KOC-CNA photos by Hsu Shu-tuan

Clinical Souquet dashes Yang's hopes of hometown gold

The stage was set for a dream ending to the men's 9-ball tournament at the World Games, with Kaohsiung native Yang Ching-shun playing for a gold medal in his home town.

The 31-year-old Yang has a long list of 9-ball titles to his name during an illustrious career, winning gold in the 2001 World Games and the 1998 and 2002 Asian Games, but he was desperately hoping to clinch a major international title at home and seemed poised to fulfill his dream Sunday.

Appleton's keep it in the family at The GB9 London Classic

An Appleton featured in each of the three division finals at Rileys American Pool Club in Shepherd's Bush, London this weekend, as 10-Ball World Champion Darren won the main event, and also managed a runner up spot in The Pro Cup event, whilst his lesser-known cousin Andy Appleton scored his first final in the Challenge Division at the GB9 London Classic this weekend.

GB9 is Britain’s official professional 9 ball pool tour. The tour has quickly cemented itself as the toughest and most respected national pool tour in Europe with a line up of players other nations can only dream of, such as the 2007 World Pool Champion - Daryl Peach; European Number 1 - Mark Gray, 2008 World 10 Ball Champion - Darren Appleton, London's finest - Imran Majid and Raj Hundal, snooker legend Tony Drago, and a special guest appearance at this event by former European Mosconi Cup winning team player Lee Tucker.

Innovative Grip Technology And Sports Car Good-Looks Ignite A New Era

The six-model Poison Strychnine line breaks all cue-making records with three innovative upholstered grips that give players cutting-edge wrap alternatives and an unprecedented feel never seen before in the billiards arena.

Owning a cue with the right wrap and in-hand traction is a key factor for straight and consistent shots; Strychnine’s grip options were developed to specifically address this inherent playing need. The new Poison line has three grips with varying surfaces and traction levels: the HI™ Leather Grip offers low firmness and medium traction; the HD™ Rubber Grip has a textured surface for medium firmness and medium-high traction; and the XS™ Carbon Grip is smooth and firm with medium-low traction. These grip options allow players to find the cue that fits their preferred style; in turn, Strychnine promotes a more fluid stroke, increased accuracy, and an enhanced playing experience that leads straight to victory.

Mickey Flynns 9-Ball results and photos!

27 players descended on everyone's favourite club this past Sunday for a rare taste of 9-ball pool action. Yes, the club is Mickey Flynns and for the first time in over two years the famous ten ball was never to be seen.

Notable names were in attendance including the ever impressive Phil Wildman, Ipswich legend Phil Morgan, up 'n coming prospect Steve Petty, and a host of local cueman featuring challenge tour snooker player Vinnie Calabrese, all around cueist Joff Middleton, youngster Finlay Laing, Dan Smith who is the best single ball potter in Mickey Flynns, 8-ball tour player Rich Wharton, and last but not least, WORLD 8-BALL CHAMPION Phil Harrison.

After a good day's play it was a case of PHIL YA BOOTS as Harrison would meet Wildman for the title. Both players had their chances but it was the experience of Harrison which took control to run out a winner by 9 to 5.

69th Predator World Straight Pool Championship

For the fourth straight year, Dragon Promotions will produce the 69th Annual Predator World 14.1 Championship. Comet Billiards will host this year's event playing on beautiful Brunswick Gold Crown tables and using Simonis Cloth, Master Chalk, and the Laser Rack. The event will start play on August 24, 2009 and end August 29. The greatest straight pool players from around the world will arrive on USA's east coast again to New Jersey, and attend this prestigious event to play for the coveted title of World Straight Pool Champion.

The World Straight Pool Championship is the oldest tournament still existing today. Invented by Jerome Keough and shortly after recognized as the official game of billiards , the first World 14.1 Championship was held in 1911 and won by Alfredo DeOro. In its history due to war and economics, the World 14.1 Championship had 29 tournaments that did not take place including a 15 year gap between 1990-2005 until Dragon Promotions revived the game and the World Tournament in 2006, which also marked the first time a non-American won the discipline in a World Championship. That distinction went to Germany's Thorsten Hohmann.
