Turkish billiard player Kenan Cantürk has become the new Swiss three-cushion champion. The championship was played in Lausanne, Switzerland in May 2021. Pictured above the three final players: Bouhaz, Cantürk (Winner) and Cetin.
The multiple American champion Pedro Piedrabuena has won an open tournament in Los Angeles. In the final of the Silver Cup, played in the Silver Cue Billiards Club, the PBA player defeated his eternal rival Hugo Patino 35-15.
He could hardly hold back his tears on the final podium at the Dutch championship, when the national anthem sounded through the arena. The wonderfully happy Brabant player Ludo Kools, the 53-year-old rookie at the Jumbo Masters, crowned a bizarre adventure on the final day with the Dutch three-cushion title. He was a brilliant winner, an unlikely champion, rewarded with a ticket for the World Championships in Korea.
The not even 30-year-old Spaniard David Zapata instantly is the best paid billiard player ever. Even the legendary Belgian Raymond Ceulemans, with his 21 world titles in three-cushion billiards, has never earned that much with his rich record of championships as what the not even world-famous Juan David Zapata was overjoyed with on the podium of the PBA Tour on Saturday 6 March 2021, in South Korea.
The 2021 USBA 3-Cushion National Championship will be held December 9-12 at Carom Cafe Billiards in Flushing, New York.
