Manila, Philippines- is ready for the Yalin Women’s World 10-Ball Championship. The 2011 edition will take place November 2-6 at Robinson’s Galleria.  An elite world class pros only field of 48 international superstars of the world’s greatest women’s players will attend the event to become the World Champion of 10-Ball.

 Players in attendance include super stars like the defending champion Jasmin Ouschan , World Champion Allison Fisher (ENG), World Champion Ga Young Kim (KOR), China’s #1 Siming Chen, Amway Cup winner Yu Ram Cha (KOR) and former World Champion Rubilen Amit (PHI).

The format will be a round robin system, which means there will be 8 groups of 6 players and they are all going to play each other. The top 3 of every group will advance to the final round which will be played in a single elimination format.

I am in group 1 together with Rubilen Amit (PHI), Monica Webb (USA), Shin Mei Liu (TPE), N. Seroshtan (RUS) and Wu (TPE).

After the group stages I was Nr.2 in my group behind Rubilen Amit from the Philippines. So I was put into the first final round where I faced Yukawa from Japan. It was a tough match for both of us. We were not playing well and the match went up and down. I finally took the lead at 7:6 but a missed 5 ball was my last chance on the table. She ran out to go 7:7 and also the next one to kick me out of the event.

“Well this is not my dream result of course. I played really well until my last match. I felt really good on the table and had a great time, but the last one just had too many mistakes in it. There were a lot of good things at this event and that is what I am going to take with me.”

Congrats to Kelly Fisher!
