Yapp’s Controversial Tournament-Winning Shot in the 8-Ball World Championship … Was it a Foul?

Great analysis. Happy to see so many examples. I don't know why so many people are saying that Yapp knew it was a foul. He has the look of I know that was close so waiting to hear. He probably thought it was a foul but not for him to decide. Hard to see everything. I played a delicate kick into 2 of my tied up stripes in a game and I expected 1 of the 2 stripes to hit a rail, but I could see neither one did. I said I think that was a foul, no rail, but my opponent and spectator said the cueball hit a rail after contact. He then kicked the ball in, so who needs ball in hand. Laugh.

Big win for Zielinski. He hasn't fulfilled his promise since winning the Las Vegas Open back to back in 2022 and 2023. This is his biggest tournament win since then.

I am a surprised Hubert Lopotko got to the finals. Solid player, but not someone who has shown he could get to a final in a stacked field. Still, he and Wiktor beat some top players along the way.
