Sambajon Back in the Winners’ Circle

Blaze 9-Ball Tour / Levittown, NY
by Rick Davis
{mosimage}Santos Sambajon Jr. returned to the winners’ circle on the Blaze 9-Ball Tour to rack up his third first-place finish out of the twelve events held this season. Taking place at Leisure Time Billiards in Levittown, NY, this tournament attracted a 33-player field for this May 5-6 event.
Once the action reached the hot seat match Sambajon flew past Oscar Bonilla 7-3 to rest comfortably in the finals. Over on the one-loss side the incoming Bonilla was drilled 7-1 by Shin Park, who was looking for another tour win himself after taking two already this season. Back in the finals, Sambajon and Park fought tooth and nail until, at double-hill, Sambajon swept up the match with a break and run to claim top honors.
{sidebar id=1}Also of note in the event were two powerful ladies entries, Liz Ford and Erin McManus. Ford, a consistent player on tour, defeated Earl “The Pearl” Strickland 7-4, while McManus worked up a commanding 6-2 lead over Park before the match slipped away from her double-hill.
Next, the Blaze 9-Ball Tour will fire up at the Atlantic City Billiard Club in Egg Harbor, NJ, May 20.
