FILIPINA Rubilen "Bingkay" Amit continued her streak in the ongoing WPA (World Pool-Billiard Association) 4th Annual Yalin Women's World 10-Ball Championship yesterday at the Robinson's Galleria in Ortigas.
The Cebu native Amit, who also won the Women's World 10-Ball Championship four years ago, used her power breaks to defeat B.R. Jung of Korea, 6-2, and K. Yukawa of Japan, 6-1, respectively to match the 2-0 record of fellow Filipina 13-year-old Cheska Centeno of Zamboanga City.
?Break has become the difference in the match,? said Amit, playing under the Puyat Sports after the match. ?I had a more solid breaking game in my first two matches.? she added.
Centeno on the other hand, dumped M. Grujicic of Venezuela, 6-0, for her second straight win in as many rounds. She earlier beat Japan's Noriko Onoda, 6-4.
Another Filipina entry Iris Ranola of Zamboanga City had a 1-2 win-loss record. The reigning Southeast Asian Games double gold medallist is not as fortunate as she dropped her opening matches against Kimuka Maki of Japan with a similar 6-4 output then followed a 6-4 victory against Singaporean Charlene Chai but bowed to L. Fulberg of Sweden, 4-6.
2010 World 10-ball champion Jasmin Ouschan of Austria is the first player who advanced to the knock-out stages. She beat N. Praveen of India, 6-2, K. Sone of Japan, 6-3, and Ga Young Kim of Korea, 6-4.
Defending champion Kelly Fisher of Great Britain, meantime tallied 2-1 record. She beat A. Mazhirina of India, 6-2, and Onoda, 6-0, but failed to Yu Ram Cha of Korea, 5-6.
According to Charlie Williams of the organizing Dragon Promotion, the four-day $21,000 top prize event divided into eight groups, with the top three players from each group will advance to the next round.
