16 REMAIN IN US OPEN AS DEFENDING CHAMPION CRASHES OUT

PhilBoxing.com



Carlo Biado is the lone Filipino to enter the last 16.

Defending US Open Pool champion Francisco Sanchez Ruiz has been knocked out of the tournament by Poland's Daniel Maciol at Harrah's Resort, Atlantic City - live on DAZN in the United States and broadcasters around the world.

Having edged past the Great Dane Mickey Krause thanks to a fluke at hill-hill, it looked like FSR's luck was in, however the World Champion and current WNT #1 faced a buoyant Maciol, who inflicted a gigantic performance for a 10-5 victory and a place in the last 16.

Five-time US Open champion and pre-tournament bookies favourite Shane Van Boening was beaten on the main table in front of an adoring home crowd, with Chinese Taipei's Chang Jung-Lin recording a 10-7 win over the South Dakota Kid.

That left the hopes of the US on the shoulders of Skyler Woodward, the sole remaining American in the competition. Having trailed the dangerous Japanese star Naoyuki Oi 6-3, the crowd roared as Sky overturned the scoreline for a 10-7 with six consecutive racks.

Ralf Souquet continued to roll back the years on the outside tables. Two-time World Champion Albin Ouschan fell victim to the Kaiser, a comprehensive 10-5 victory before the same scoreline followed against Chris Reinhold to see the veteran German into the last 16.

Ko Ping Chung was the first name through to the last 16 after beating Filipino Jeff De Luna 10-3 on the main table. Brother Ko Pin Yi, the current World Pool Masters winner, couldn't follow suit, heading home at the hands of Phuong Nam Pham in the last 64. The Vietnamese himself then beaten by Aleksa Pecelj, who matches his deepest run at a Matchroom major event following a last 16 run at the 2023 World Pool Championship.

European Open champion David Alcaide booked his place in Friday's action with a dominant 10-3 display over Peruvian Gerson Martinez Boza, with eyes fully focussed on the next automatic spot for Team Europe at the Mosconi Cup - which will be announced following the conclusion of the US Open World Championship.

Jayson Shaw, Joshua Filler, Fedor Gorst, Mario He, Wiktor Zielinski and Max Lechner will be following Alcaide's mission of the Mosconi, with all featuring in a strong European contingent battling out across the Atlantic.
