WNT PREMIER LEAGUE OF POOL 2026, Miami, Fla, Feb. 18-22

Too many self-inflicted errors for Bergman today. He isn’t going to make the cut.

Some very questionable decisions. Should have played safe a few times. He has one big weakness. Long somewhat straight shots. He’s missed a handful the past few days.

Great player, but not better than Woodward. Sky looked great trouncing Styer today in Vegas.

Kaci is in really good shape, and it’s really helped his game. Lost more weight than I thought. He has a bit of a gut for awhile.

Looks like Justin will get in by the skin of his chinny … barring a 5-0 loss to FSR and a 5-0 win by Morra or Atencio in their head to head.

Bergman is out on a tiebreaker.

Jesus won 5-2 vs Morra and Bergman lost 5-2 to FSR. They had the same record, but I think Jesus had the H2H tiebreaker.
 
Spoke too soon. Bergman lost on the rack tiebreaker to Atencio. Bergman and Morra faded in the last matches of the day. Disappointing, but Bergman only has himself to blame. Win one more rack in any match and he would have advanced. Had plenty of chances.

Good effort. Not too terrible for someone that's been out of the mix when it comes to elite competition. Hopefully he does better in the next WNT tournament that actually matters, and earns some ranking points.

Atencio and Bergman were both 6-9 in the match record, and both -7 in rack differential. So was the next tiebreaker the number of games won (53 vs. 52) or their head-to-head match (5-0 for Atencio)?
