Wow, am surprised the top guns, Chen SiMing, Liu Shasha are out
I think Rita Chou (Zhou Jieyu) , Han Yu or defending champ Lin will take this down. Though that wonderkid Centeno may just spring a surprise.

Centeno zhou match is for the championship
I've never watched Centeno until now, but man is she amazing.
I really like everything I'm seeing about her game.
You've been missing out. She's top five speed and this match against the champ, is outstanding. Fargo rating didn't even have her ranked I believe lol....
I haven't found the Fisher/Fisher match. The Han Yu vs. Zhou Jie Yu match is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbM6njF2IYo
Watching the finals now between the wonder kid Cheska Centeno from the Philippines (BTW, how old is she now? 15 or 16?) vs Fisher. The kid was behind 5 to 1 but has managed to bring the score closer to 5 to 3, race to 11.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBM5_Rv4dqI
:thumbup: WOW!! First time I have seen this kid play and she is fabulous. Shows no fear at all and has nerves of steel. Score is tied 6 all now, alternate break and she was down 1 to 5 earlier. Live stream quality is excellent:

:thumbup: Centeno on the hill 10-8!!! Is that her father they keep showing on screen? He must be very proud.

I thought it was Efren at first and he had put on some weight.
In any case Centeno played spectacular. A few hiccups, but she played through it, and was able to overcome those mistakes.
:thumbup: Cheska Centeno has won the AMWAY Cup at 16!!! I have been so impressed with her play that I am going to watch the finals again and her quarterfinals and semi finals matches. She seemed so shy and unassuming when she was interviewed but is a killer when she is playing.

By the way these guys put on a show. We should go out there and live the dream :thumbup:
First time I saw this Centeno. Way better than a lot of men pro players. Fast as well. Our Fisher got beaten twice in the finals by two Filipinas, Amit in 10 ball and now Centeno.
I agree. This kid phenom can currently beat a lot of male pro players here in the US and she is only 16 and can only get better from here on. Just finished watching her quarterfinals match where she demolished a Taiwanese player 9-1:

Will be watching her semi-finals performance next. I read that she beat Jasmin Ouchan 7 to 4 earlier in the tournament. I believe this is the first of many titles for her since she has gained confidence already. In the interview, Kelly said that this kid is dangerous and she was also seen clapping whenever the kid made some spectacular shots. She said she got out from every where, even when she played safe or had to push. A star is born. I am particularly impressed with her kicking and banking abilities. Her only flaw is sometimes she plays too damn fast which accounted for some errors in the finals. She reminds me of Johann Chua, one of my current favourites among the pinoy players. Philippine future pool is looking good indeed, even with the imminent exit of their aging superstars.
