2025 ONEIDA WPA Women’s 8‑Ball World Championship

The Olhausen tables are cut at 4 1/2. they look to be playing surprisingly well. Filipina Centeno at 778 Fargo is a super straight shooter and knows pattern play- she has to be a top favorite here- she just destroyed JoAnn Mason Parker 7-1-- Parker just was never in the game she was totally steam rolled by Centeno. I just don't see these American pro women even close to someone like Centeno - it has to be a very dejecting feeling to meet someone of her caliber in this tournament.

The speed of Centeno’s play is also incredibly fast
 
Centeno also routinely dogs shots and gets out of line due to carelessness. Her high gear is higher than anyone but she can flame out of tournaments early.

First time I saw her was today - her high gear was there and I believe that you are correct in your assessment.
 
They changed the balls out for Thursday, had a lot of complaints on the black balls from what I heard.
Have you been at the venue? I am thinking about bringing my 8 year old daughter along tomorrow to watch. Just wondering what the spectating situation is like?
 
Only 3 rounds tomorrow starting at 11. Plenty of space in the middle of the arena to stand and watch multiple tables. Roughly 5 or 6 chairs on the risers behind the tables to sit and watch a particular table.

No, but a friend of ours was on Wednesday. They are friends with a couple of the top pro players. We were going to go one of the days as we have a summer place 30 min from there, but things came up at home and as I fish alot there, there has been a lot of spotty rain so we are staying home. I think admission is $23
They have a big event planned for the girls tonight that I wasn't sure was going to happen, but looks like weather is breaking, hopefully will for them.
