JAYSON SHAW SET TO DEFEND TITLE AS MANSION SPORTS HANOI OPEN DRAW COMPLETED PhilBoxing.com Thu, 03 Oct 2024  The draw for the highly anticipated 2024 Mansion Sports Hanoi Open Championship is now complete. Set to take place at the Hanoi Indoor Games Gymnasium in Vietnam from October 8-13, reigning champion Jayson Shaw will join pool’s biggest stars in the Vietnamese capital for the second edition of the sport’s largest Asian tournament. Alongside the defending champion Shaw, the Mansion Sports Hanoi Open will feature World Champion Fedor Gorst, World Pool Championship runner-up Eklent Kaçi and five-time US Open champion Shane Van Boening amongst a plethora of the world’s premier pool talent.

All eyes across the pond will be focussed on the battle for Team USA’s final Mosconi Cup slot with Tyler Styer, Oscar Dominguez and Billy Thorpe all in contention to secure the final automatic spot in pool’s biggest party this December in Orlando, United States.

Both players will descend on Hanoi after appearances in WNT Ranking events, the Battle of the Bull and the Peri 9-ball Open respectively.
