Just when he was gaining the momentum to take him into the top flight, Morris hit some legal problems that saw him take a four year break from the game. Nobody really thought he could regain his position but he won virtually his first tournament back – the 2001 Sands Regency. Since then Morris has established himself as o­ne of the top four US players and he will be making his Mosconi Cup debut this December in Las Vegas. Visit InsidePOOL for the latest updates from the sport of billiards and pool.
