Final Round of Billiard Tournament to BeginThe fourth round has wound down, leaving several mysteries in the minds of several players, who will have to play as hard as they can in the last round to ensure their advancement.Team Philippines has completely dominated the day. It seemed that they only lost a match if they had to play each other. Antonio Lining did lose a hill-hill match to Philip Harrison in the fourth round, but other than that, it’s pretty much been a grand slam for them. Kiamco had an 8-5 victory over Steve Moore earlier, and now the remainder of the matches have come in.

“I think I’m okay now,” said the ever-humble Reyes in regards to whether or not he will advance (he leads his group with three wins and no losses, along with Lee Heuwagen, whom he plays in the final round). “I don’t know if I broke good or not. In the beginning I don’t make a ball, then I scratched many times. My opening is not good, which is why I have been lucky. I feel good, I don’t play good this morning, but I will next round.”With the ladies, Sarah Ellerby suffered her first loss of the day, losing 8-6 to Spain’s David Alcaide. But Karen Corr dealt an 8-3 loss to custom cue maker Bobby Hunter. Markus Juva bested Kelly Fisher 8-5.“I played perfect,” Williams reported after winning 8-2 over Tommy Kennedy. “He won the lag, broke, and ran out. Didn’t make anything, and I ran out. Then I broke and ran six racks. I was up seven-one, broke, and didn't make anything. He ran out, then didn’t make anything on the break, and I ran out. Neither one of us made a mistake.“I broke good, made three or four balls a couple times, I had good patterns. I’m three and oh, so I’ll make it through … I just need to keep breaking like that. It feels drier here and the tables are playing easier … I hope they are tougher later on.” Round 1 GROUP 1T. HohmannS. MooreL. JonesW. KiamcoJ. RaneyGROUP 2M. ManaloC. WilliamsS. TownsendT. KennedyR.
