In cooperation of Li XiaoLong/Samuel Lai/Alison Chang (Source: http://news.top147.com/2015/11/00024548.shtml) 11/11/2015 Liu ShaSha of China successfully defended her title and proved to the world that she is the best in women’s pool by snatching the World 9-Ball Championship title for a third time. A tight tug-of-war would be expected between the defending champion and the current Euro Tour champion Jasmine Ouschan (Austria), but the final resulted with a rather surprising and preposterous score of 9-4. In the playoff, Chieh-Yu Chou of Chinese Taipei took the 2nd runner-up place by beating Chihiro Kawahara 9-7. When the battle reached the semi-finals, Liu was then the only player from China left in the field. If she goes out at that stage, record would be made for the first time ever that no Chinese players were in the final since the tournament had moved to China in 2009. Immense pressure then on Liu’s shoulders. Nervousness also came from other sources, such as being in the final again, the burden of defending the title, the desire to lift the trophy up […]

Die Präsentation war außergewöhnlich und auch das spielerische Niveau der besten Frauen der Welt hat sich weiter verbessert. Die Titelverteidigerin Yu Han aus China hat 2013 ein perfektes Turnier gespielt, lediglich im Achtelfinale kam sie kurzzeitig in Bedrängnis. Ab der nächsten Runde spielte sie allerdings absolut perfektes Pool Billard ohne Fehler bis zu ihrem 9-1 Sieg im Finale gegen Lin Yuan-Chun aus Taiwan –> 2013 WPA Women’s World 9 Ball Championship. Mit dieser Leistung hätte sie durchaus auch Chancen gehabt bei einer Herren-Weltmeisterschaft. Auch in diesem Jahr sind die Chinesinnen natürlich wieder zu den Favoritinen zu zählen, neben Yu Han werden auch Chen Siming, Pan Xiaoting, Fu Xiafang , Liu Shasha […]
