Gabica tinalo ni Hohmann sa finals ng World 9-Ball

ATan - Pang-masa

MANILA, Philippines - Pinatunayan ni Thorsten Hohmann ng Germany na kaya niya ang husay ng mga Filipino cue-artists nang pabagsakin si Antonio Gabica, 13-7, at pagharian ang 2013 World 9-ball Championship sa Al Arabi Sports Club sa Doha, Qatar.

Hindi natinag si Hohmann kahit napag-iwanan sa 4-6 at nakatulong ang pagbagsak ng laro  ni Gabica pa­ra mauna pang umabot sa hill, 12-6.

Ito ang ikalawang titulo ni Hohmann at ang una ay nangyari noon pang 2003 sa Cardiff, Wales.

Lalabas din na si Gabica ang ikaapat na sunod na Pi­noy na kanyang hinarap at tinalo sa torneo.

Bago ang 41-anyos, 2006 Doha Asian Games gold me­dalist, ang mga naunang yumukod kay Hohmann ay sina Dennis Orcollo (11-8), Jeff de Luna (11-7) at Carlo Biado (11-4) sa round-of-16, quarterfinals at semifinals.

“Everything just worked for me. I was in stroke. I thought I really could win this from the beginning to the end. I never had a doubt,” wika ni Hohmann na na­kuha ang $36,000.00 premyo.
