Mosconi/Reyes/WPM rankings

Reyes Cup is more "political" than the Mosconi. Easy tell is a guaranteed spot for the top "Filipino" player.

Still a big race on for the guaranteed spot. Let's say it is Roda or Regalario. You know Manas, last year's MVP, will at least be a wild card. What about Carlo? Will MR really leave him off?

Ditto for Hoang. He was a reach two years ago as a wild card. Not anymore. He has the 18th highest Fargo worldwide. The only Asians he trails are Yapp, the Ko brothers, Biado, Chua and Anton Raga.

If I had to guess, I don't think MR will pick three Filipinos. So: Yapp, Manas, Duong, Biado/Roda/Regalario and ... Albert Januarta!

Personally, I'd love to see Oi on the team. The event needs a character, and he's the one in Asia.

Kaci, pro pool and prize money

Yup. Very few in any pool hall have ever heard of Efren, or SVB, or Filler. And it pisses me off that they stream cornhole instead of pool.
I've been in rooms when super stars of the game show up and the folks drinking beers and banging ball have no idea who they are.......

To sell content you have to have stars........

Mosconi/Reyes/WPM rankings

Team Europe will have at least one new player, but probably two or three.

David Alcaide probably won’t be back. Labutis is too far behind on points unless he finishes first or second at the US Open.

Filler is the top point getter and is a shoo-in. Moritz Neuhausen is close to a lock. He is fourth in points, but he won the Euro Open this year and would be sure to get a wild card.

I’ve got to believe Shaw would be a wild card. Unless MR wants new blood and to see if the absence of Shaw gives Team USA a better chance.

Rankings before Phoenix Open

1)Filler - 59,840
2)FSR - 45,775
3)Oliver Szolnoki - 44,885

5)Dennis Grabe - 37,770
6)Kledio Kaci - 36,200

Souto, Eklent Kaci, Mario He and Alex Kazakis are all in the 26,000 to 28,000 point range. No one else is above 20,000.
