World Pool Championships 2025, July 21-26, Jeddah

Oh please, women have always been allowed to enter open events. Would you have banned Jean Balukas from the straight pool world championship?
What I'm saying is there were no women at 9-ball WPCs that were intended for men. For some 30 years since I started to follow. I'm fine with what you call an "open" event, but let me tell that as long as a "9-ball women WC" exist, please keep the same for men. Who won't have to be dealing with women or kids.

Not a good example
Watches are jewelry and status symbol.
Nobody is going to carry a fancy pool cue to a gala event or a business meeting.
Even at the pool hall, nobody cares anymore what cue you have.

Fancy custom cues will be the last to die, but they will
Fancy custom cues are still revered at local pool halls. If I laid my cues on a pool table and walked away watching what
happened, without a doubt there’d be a large number of pool players wanting to take a gander. Beauty is hard to resist.

And afterward, if I approached the table, there’d be people wanting to ask me about the cues. You can admire & desire
what you may not be able to afford or think paying that much for a cue is crazy. Criticism is a lot cheaper than purchasing.
