2016 US Open 9 ball/ 9ft (16-22 Oct2016) Norfolk, Virginia (Winner $50K)

Wow
amazing Shaw B&R to get on hill
His break is working suddenly
He was getting illegal breaks early in match
 
Wow
Shaw breaks and again open table except long cut on 2
He misses
Chang stands laughs and asks for timeout
10-10

:D
 
Excellent final rack by Chang
He composes himself
Make the tough 2
Shouts at crowd
Then runs out
lol

TPA
Chang 949
Shaw 930

Chang wins hot seat 11-10 and is thru to final

next up Shane v Shaw
Winner will play Chang in final
 
Still a great fight-back by Shaw! Now for what would have been a great finals. SVB vs Shaw!

Is the open a single race to 13 in finals or a true double elimination?

Just race to 13 win by 2 racks until 14 or 15 I think
It would be fairer if it is true double elimination and us fans can watch up to 2 matches :)
Plus there is enough time slots to slot in up to 2 matches (race to 11) for final
 
No coincidence that the guys that breaks the best are left in the tournament. Alex and Dennis successful break rate is way too low.
 
what I find interesting is when Shaw broke few times earlier in match, he had either illegal break or CB near rail no open table or no shot on lowest number
But when he started his run from 10-4 , somehow maybe his adrenaline is pumping, he just breaks purely and harder and the balls scatter open table, CB in middle and he gets shot on lower number. Just perfect breaks which he was unable to do early in match
And same thing happened in his match with Ko
