Third times the charm for Ko

(l-r) Ko Pin Yi, Golden Break Group Chairman Mr Shin and Ko Ping Chung

Chinese Taipei’s Ko Ping Chung finally makes it on his third attempt as he beats his elder brother Ko Pin Yi to lift the Champion’s trophy at the 4th Golden Break 9 Ball Asia Invitational Championship 2012 here at Golden Break Subang USJ.

Majority predicted Pin Yi to be the winner as he played a better game today compared to his younger brother. This was however immediately proven wrong when the match started, as Ping Chung sped off straight to a 7-2 lead, leaving Pin Yi clueless as he trails behind.

Pin Yi tried to close the gap but was still far behind, the closest at 9-11 trailing. That was the last rack Pin Yi could win as Ping Chung took remaining the 2 rack, winning the match and Championship by 13-9.

Ping Chung takes home the Champion’s trophy and cash prize USD8,000 whilst his brother Pin Yi takes USD 4,000 cash prize for his Runner up effort.

3rd Golden Break 9 Ball Invitational Championship 2011

13 – 21 August 2011

  Lee Van Corteza with trophy and mock chequeCorteza came into the Final with a very convincing win over Indonesia’s Riyan Setiawan in the Semi Final whilst Ko Ping Chung had to overcome a more difficult opponent, his elder brother Ko Pin Yi before advancing.

When the Final broke off, Corteza immediately went to a 3-0 lead before Ping Chung could return the attack. Ping Chung was literally playing catching up throughout the whole match as he was trailing 2-4 and 7-9. Corteza, being the more experienced player, was in control throughout and gave no chance the youngster to retaliate. His Semi Final match play form continued through to the Final and without even looking back, eventually won it at 13-8.

Lee Van Corteza flies home with cash prize of USD 7,000 and the Champion’s trophy while Ko Ping Chung can only take the Runner up trophy for the consecutive 2nd time and cash prize of USD 3,500.

Taiwanese Sensation Pin-Yi Ko Wins 2011 Guinness World Series of Pool ChampionshipYet again, Taiwan has proven itself a powerhouse contender in the global billiards scene with rising star Pin-Yi Ko delivering a flawless display of pool against renowned 2007 US Open 9-Ball Champion, Shane Van Boening in their race to 10 finals encounter to claim the prestigious 2010 Guinness World Series of Pool Championship crown here at Mal Taman Anggrek Jakarta Indonesia, 10 – 4.

Ko’s textbook form in a stunning 8 – 6 upset of tournament top-seed and World No. 1 Dennis Orcollo in their semi-finals clash actually gave an early indication that Van Boening, who earlier trumped Indonesian Irsal Nasution 8 – 4, was in for a tough match-up.

Taking no chances, the American brought out his A-game early and wasted no time in building a 2 – 0 cushion. Fortunately for Ko he was immediately able to bounce back with a break and run out in the 3rd rack and able to capitalize on a foul on the 1ball attempt by Van Boening in the 4th to tie the ball game 2 racks each.

Unfortunately for Van Boening, his young opponent was just starting to heat up. Beginning in the 5th frame Ko turned the contest into a lopsided affair breaking and running out three straight times while at the same time taking advantage of two straight dry-breaks from the American to completely dominate by the 8th rack, 6 – 2.

In the 9th a missed cut on the 1ball corner pocket attempt from Ko came as a welcome reprieve for Van Boening who turned the error into a rack conversion to stop the bleeding 3 – 6.  At this point however, things were looking bleak for the South Dakota native as his game, which faithfully brought him up to the pinnacle of the tournament was almost non-existent.

Sensing the championship was within his grasp Ko, never looked back – Turning his opponent into a mere spectator with his immaculate breaking and supreme counter safeties. He allowed Van Boening to score just one more before cruising all the way to the championship 10 – 4 and bag the USD41,000.00 top prize. For his admirable efforts Van Boening earns USD11,000.00.

Ecstatic about the win, Ko managed to comment: ‘I prepared really hard for this tournament. Through all that training, I think that helped me keep my emotions in check whenever I felt pressure in my matches. And that proved to be the difference in my game this year. I’m very excited to tell my friends and my parents back home about my win.”
