Imran Majid Wins The Multi-Ball Winter Open
Reporter: Dan Suh
Photographer: Andrew Phan
IMRAN MAJID takes home the 4th trophy of our 2022 Tour and secures his spot in the Masters Final next month!
The Multi-Ball Winter Open welcomed 32 players to battle it out over 8, 9 and 10-Ball for a top prize of £500 and a place in the Masters Final later this year.
Rod Altes has been dominating our weekly tournaments and continues that form at the Winter Open. He's had some good results at the previous opens but this time he found an extra push of confidence to bring his best game, taking out Craig Osborne in a very tight semi-final that deservedly earned him a spot in the final. But the man on some outstandingly fine form, Imran Majid comes out on top!
Imran has had some solid results at all of our 2022 Tour events falling just short of the top spot each time but last week he came ready, looking stronger and more focused than ever.

EARL STRICKLAND OUT FOR REDEMPTION AS FINAL WILD CARD PICK
Earl Strickland is the final wild card pick for Team USA ahead of the 2022 Mosconi Cup getting underway at Bally's Las Vegas from November 30 to December 3 live on Sky Sports as well as on DAZN in the USA, Canada, Spain, and Italy and on Viaplay in Scandinavia, the Baltics, and Poland.
Captain Jeremy Jones opted for Strickland to join his side of Shane Van Boening, Skyler Woodward, Oscar Dominguez, and Tyler Styer with the Pearl out for payback after being forced to withdraw from last year's cup due to a positive COVID-19 contact trace. It was heartbreak for Strickland in London who has won the joint-most amount of Mosconi Cup titles with nine and will go on the hunt for a historic tenth as the USA look to take the crown for the first time since 2019.
There was an outpouring of support for Strickland last December after his withdrawal and he will look to create more huge moments once again having produced some of the biggest ever from battling with snooker legend Ronnie O’Sullivan in 1996 to claiming MVP in 2005 as the USA beat Europe 11-6.
Strickland admitted he didn't think he would be picked again: "Last year was unbelievable but I knew it could happen (positive COVID-19 contact trace). The pandemic was impacting everyone. It was the nature of the situation. That said, I am glad to get this chance. Maybe, it will be my last time representing the USA and if it is my last chance, I will make the best of it and show what I have in my locker."

Rack 1 - Sanchez Ruiz 0-1 Lechner - Lechner won the lag before taking the opening rack in a break and run to curb any early nerves in the biggest match of both players' careers.
Rack 2 - Sanchez Ruiz 0-2 Lechner - The Austrian doubled his advantage soon after with another break and run, laying down a real warning sign in the process of how he would attack the contest.
Rack 3 - Sanchez Ruiz 1-2 Lechner - After a brief safety exchange Lechner looked to be in to establish a 3-0 lead at the first commercial but a missed seven ball later and Sanchez Ruiz was on the board for the first time in the contest.

Congratulations to Kev Simpson - 9 Ball Pool Series Event Champion
Just a few short weeks after our heatwave, Autumn has arrived and 47 keen cueists made their way to a breezy RIley’s in Solihull. It was the final regular event of the season and after today, November’s grand finals would have its participants decided. There was all to play for!
The first few rounds were tight, with no less than five matches all going hill-hill in round 1.
Matt Hyden looked to be feeling good early on, racing to a 7-2 win over Szymon Rodewald.
Tashunka Witko Fishonahook also sent an early message of intent, sending Tom Emes over to the losers’ side with a convincing 7-1 win. Likewise Ashik Nathwani managed to sail through two rounds conceding only one rack, beating Navid Mohammed 7-0 and Andy Lacey 7-1.
Dave Hopkin battled hard, losing out closely to Kev Simpson 7-6 after a storming 7-0 victory against GJ in the first round. He continued making his way through the field, until coming up against a much-improved Matt Ross, who edged out Dave in a hill-hill game.
Luke Hart was cueing well too, freshly recovered after losing handily to Andy Carter in Leicester recently. Unfortunately, whilst he didn’t meet his Crash-Bang nemesis again he did come up against a dominating Kev Simpson, who cruised into the quarter-finals 7-0.

Ramesh Gokhul takes home the 3rd trophy of our 2022 Tour!
Reporter: Andrew Phan
Photographer: Ciprian Dandu
The 8-Ball Autumn Open welcomed 32 players to battle it out for a top prize of £500 and a place in the Masters Final later this year.
Tom Staveley, the winner of the 10-Ball Summer Open was a late entry, originally not interested in an 8-ball tournament but entered anyway as he “hates the game but hates not competing more” - a true competitor’s spirit that despite starting slow going 4-0 down against Mark Foster in his first match.
He went on to win his group with 3 wins then showed continuously improving form to reach the final. But it’s Ramesh Danny Gokhul, who has been dominating our weekly tournaments that brings his form to this event.

Philippines Are Predator World Teams Champions
Reporter: Predator Group
Photography: Predator Group
Philippines defeated Great Britain 3-0 in the final in Klagenfurt, Austria to be crowned 2022 Predator World Teams Champions, eight years after finishing runners-up the last time the event was staged.
The team of Rubilen Amit, Carlo Biado and Johann Chua won 4-3, 4-3, 4-1 against the British trio of Kelly Fisher, Jayson Shaw and Darren Appleton. Both Biado and Amit were part of the silver-medal winning team of 2014, when they lost to China in the final.
Philippines had reached this year’s final with a shootout victory over Germany, who fought back from 2-0 down to force the decider. Britain’s semi-final was against Chinese Taipei, who were defeated 3-1 with Shaw in practically good form for his nation.
The final was much closer than the scoreline might suggest; the first two sets - women’s singles and a men’s match contested by Shaw and Biado - both finished 4-3, before the victory was completed by Amit and Chua in a 4-1 mixed-doubles win over Fisher and Appleton.
“It feels amazing to be champions,” said Amit. “We're, we're very, very happy, and very and relieved. Finally, no more matches, we can rest and just enjoy it and enjoy Austria and Klagenfurt!
“Last time we placed 2nd and now we are finally the champions. I am very happy that I have Johann and Carlo as my teammates because they are awesome, they are very good players.”
