Johan should pick 6-8 players and have a round robin Mosconi type qualifier and so be it for 2 spots.

He's been living in the USA for a good 20 years, and obtained his USA Citizenship a few years ago. The exact same thing happened with Allison Fischer. They both represent USA now in international competition.

In another few years Team USA might be all Europeans

I don’t think that you are missing anything either. Buddy was one of the “prior generation” of players who had the stroke fundamentals that would have translated very effortlessly into this modern pool playing equipment world.
I think all the past greats could play great today.
The real issue is for the the amateur old timer who never had the internet etc. in their earlier years of play and developed strokes that just do not translate well to pro quality table specs of today - it is a struggle for us to remake ourselves at this point in our lives - so fast fast tables and pro type pocket configurations are much more challenging than some care to deal with - that’s all.

Also scenario I thought of… suppose you hit the cue ball into an object ball with a lot of top spin and a lot of speed. Let’s say the cue ball hits the object ball and follows the tangent line because of the speed and it hits a rail before any curve happens. Would the cue ball then still curve after coming off the rail?
