MANILA, Philippines - Fifteen-time world champion Allison Fisher completes the mighty Team West that takes on the very best of Asia, making Team East, in the JBET.com Queens Cup slated at Resorts World Manila on Nov. 5-7.
Fisher teams up with fellow world champions Jasmin Ouschan from Austria, captain Kelly Fisher from England and Vivian Villarreal from the US as they face off Team East to be composed of topnotch players from China, Korea, Taiwan and the Philippines.
Fisher is the only living player that has been ranked No. 1 in the world in four different decades. Fisher won 11 world snooker championships before switching over to American pool and won another four world championships, a record five US Open Championships, and a total of 144 major titles.
By far, Fisher is the most accomplished player among all the champions in the Queens Cup.
“I have always liked the idea of team events. I think there is mutual respect both ways between the west and the eastern women,†said Fisher. “The concept of the Queens Cup is important because I think it showcases the greatest talent in the world.â€
“Allison Fisher is royalty in billiards. Her charisma, style, and class will be well received during the Queens Cup,†said Cindy Lee, CEO of Dragon Promotions.
“Having Allison on the team without a doubt is huge for Team West. It’s going to be experience versus youth in an all out war at the Queens Cup,†says Charlie Williams, executive producer and creator of the Queens Cup.
