Thorsten Hohmann gilt in der Szene als der im Moment wohl beste 14.1 Spieler der Welt. Er bezwang im Vorjahr Darren Appleton (GBR) im Finale mit 200-164. Darren Appleton stellte im letzten Jahr einen neuen Rekord auf, als er im Halbfinale gegen Francisco Bustamante mit einer 200er Serie die Partie in […]
