Shane Van Boening - US Open Champion - Again!
This was one of the most thrilling US Open's in recent history, with plenty of action to keep European pool fans glued to their screens into the small hours, with no less than 7 European players making it to the top sixteen on the prize money list, but this was to be the USA's day, as pool supremo Shane Van Boening took the title without loss.
Van Boening's victory in the final over Lee Van Corteza rarely looked in doubt, despite a last minute valiant run of four racks by the Filipino making the scoreline a bit more respectable (13-10), whilst Shane's previous matches had all seen a larger disparity in scores. The hot seat match with Scotland's Jayson Shaw ended 11-5, the previous match with England's Chris Melling 11-6, and 11-7 against Jeremy Sossei (USA). Despite the high quality of opposition, they all fell to strong leads from the "South Dakota Kid" along with Danny Mastermaker (USA) 11-5, Fabio Petroni (ITA) 11-3, Omar Al Shaeen (KUW) 11-5, and Ronnie Oldervik (NOR) 11-6.
This is the third time Shane has won the US Open, and with his two most recent wins, (2012-2013) he has completed a triplet of champions who have now won the title consecutively in recent years, joining Mika Immonen (2008-2009), and Darren Appleton (2010-2011).
