In the final round, Cho Jae-ho defeated his countryman Heo
Jung-han 40-28 to win the first prize and pocketed cash worth 2,000 USD. Heo
Jung-han received 1,200 USD in cash.
Choi Sung-won and Kim Haeng-jik, both Koreans, shared the third prize,
pocketing 600 USD each.
The five-day event started from April 4 and featured 50 leading cueists,
including 2017 Asian champion Nguyen Quoc Nguyen of Vietnam, world No 10, Choi
Sung-won of the Republic of Korea, world No 12 and Vietnamese Tran Quyet Chien,
world No 15.
However, Vietnam’s billiard players did not perform well in the three-cushion
carom category.
In the one-cushion carom category, Vietnam’s Ngo Dinh Nai won the first prize
with 1,000 in cash. On April 5, Nai beat his teammate Ma Minh Cam 100-83 in the
final to take the title for the second time.
The third prize went to Vietnam’s Pham Quoc Tuan and Lee Seung-jin of the
Republic of Korea, who earned 300 USD each.
