BIADO & FEIJEN STORM TO RANKING EVENT SUCCESSES

PhilBoxing.com




Carlo Biado and Niels Feijen both had a weekend to remember on opposite sides of the Atlantic, picking up World Nineball Tour Ranking Event victories in the United States and Serbia respectively.

LATEST WORLD NINEBALL TOUR RANKINGS

RAXX POOL ROOM OPEN

2021 US Open Pool champion Biado made the perfect preparation for a return to Harrah’s Resort, Atlantic City, for the 46th installment of pool’s most historic major from September 25-30th live on Sky Sports in the UK & Ireland and DAZN in the USA, by landing the Raxx Pool Room Open in a hill-hill thriller with Germany’s World Cup of Pool finalist Mortiz Neuhausen.

The Black Tiger was the cream of a strong 126-man field in West Hempstead, New York, having beaten the likes of European Open champion David Alcaide, former World Pool Master Alex Kazakis and 2022 US Open Pool Championship finalist Max Lechner en-route to the final.

19-year-old prodigy Neuhausen had showcased his qualities throughout the tournament, having sent Biado to the loser’s bracket in a commanding 9-4 display earlier in the tournament. Victories over Kazakis and former World Champion Fedor Gorst project the German’s ability to thrive at the top of the game for many years to come.

LONGONI LOZNICA OPEN

Niels Feijen’s quest for a 15th appearance at the Mosconi Cup were enhanced after landing the $3,000 first prize in Loznica, Serbia. The veteran Dutchman flexed his superiority on the Nineball Balkan Tour, remaining unbeaten throughout to defeat Serbian Luka Bulatovic 9-5 in the final.

Victory for Feijen strengthens his position inside the top 16 of the WNT Rankings, who will be targeting a deep run to the latter stages of the US Open, where two more players will secure their places in Team Europe and USA at the 30th Anniversary Mosconi Cup taking place at Alexandra Palace, London from December 6-9th 2023.

The competition couldn’t have been hotter in Central Europe, with all four quarter-finals matches going hill-hill, seeing World Cup of Pool stars Sanjin Pehlivanovic and Aleksa Pecelj eliminated by Faruk Terzic and Bulatovic respectively.

JS Junior Open champion 13-year-old Maks Benko continued a stellar year with a run to the semi-finals – losing out to eventual champion Feijen.
