Jonas Ruga Magpantay is the last Filipino standing in the Qatar World Cup 10-Ball as other Filipinos including Bonus fell like dominoes in their Last 8 matches on Saturday at the Ezdan Palace in Doha, Qatar.
Magpantay defeated Wojciech Szewczyk of Poland, 11-5, in the last 16 before trouncing Niels Feijen of the Netherlands, 11-7, in the last 8.
The Barangay Kaunlaran, Cubao, Quezon City resident Magpantay will face the winner of the Moritz Neuhausen of Germany vs Bader Alawadhi of Kuwait match.
Bonus beat compatriot Johann Chua,11-9, in a tense all-Filipino clash in the last 16 but was beaten by Szymon Kural of Poland in the quarter final round.
"The pride continues. From 128 of the world's best , now in the Final 4.
Jonas Magpantay is now the only Filipino left in the Qatar World Cup 10 Ball 2025 representing our flag with heart and humility. Let's continue to support and pray for him as he pushes toward the finish line," posted Doha based Imee Magpantay-Balida on her Facebook account, eldest sister of Jonas.
