WNT Florida Open 2026, August 4-9, Orlando, Caribe Royale

I’m sure it’s just me but I find it difficult to find WNT brackets online or live scores.
Just goto their web site. I think the live scoring and brackets are free. You have to pay if you want to watch the matches. But it’s pretty cheap imo and the production is good and they always have at least 4 matches available to watch.
 
I swear a lot of it is these guys getting in each other's heads. They're all STUPIDLY good. Methinks they think too much.

filler cracked against doung in vice city too. uncharacteristic. he has been fiddling with his stroke the last year. but it worked at the UK open..
 
Petri is going to be sick. He missed the 8b to win 10-8, then lost the safety battle hill hill.

The miss by Petri is interesting to me. He tried to shoot the 8 along the short rail with inside English at slow speed to hold for the 9b. Probably should have hit it hard and gone up and down the table. I think even for top pros that slow inside spin is tough under pressure!
The slow with inside is always tough bcz it's unpredictable. You can get some crazy skids

There were some poor choices in tight moments and inexplicable misses.

Manas … Januarta … Petri … Petri also wilted under pressure when he got to the UK open semis in 2024.

Januarta was up 3-0, I think, on Atencio and flubbed a makeable shot with a chance to go up 4-0. Atencio quickly tied it up.

Almost every big mistake was severely punished, but both Filler and Petri left SVB and Kazakis off the hook.

Nothing wrong with Filler’s stroke. He was bridging off the rail on both misses on the 7 in rack 14.

Fillers 2nd miss when it was 7-7 was bad.. you would never expect him not to get out from there. He didn’t have to do anything with the cue ball. He could play that shot any way he liked. I’m sure svb was stunned when he was back at the table.
 
My loyalty is to Shane for the win. USA, USA, USA, all the way.

My heart is with Alex Kazakis for the win. He a genuinely nice guy and is out there grinding it on a regular basis around the world. If he won it, I'd be happy. I'm a huge fan.

My brain tells me Eklent Kaci is in beast mode, slimmed down and in shape, ready to pounce.

Jesús is the new flavor of 2026, just beginning his trek to pool stardom. If he wins this, there will be a new sheriff in town.
 
Saturday was a dandy in the arena and left us with an intriguing final four. SVB would seem a logical pick to win, but I think Atencio has been the most consistently outstanding player to this point. Sunday should be fun.

This is the first semi for Kazakis in a Matchroom major since the true start of the WNT tour.

Kaci has been hot and cold. Wasn’t great at Vice City.

Atencio should have lost to Bergman and Januarta had a chance to bury him early. Atencio has been coming on strong since last year’s Florida open. But he still needs to round out his tactical and safety game and keep getting more consistent.

SVB said he’s going to win the event and the crowd will be behind him, but there’s no slouches left.
 
that kazakis is a nice guy doesn't help the viewer experience.. i hope it won't be kaci vs kazakis in the finals because they're two slow players. stencil jesus* and shane better bring their a-game today

* autocorrect misnomer he got on here when he was new on the scene. could have been when earl threw a tantrum playing him at tommy kennedy's tournament, or maybe that was a separate incident
 
Did Scott Frost really say Kaci wasn't trying to pot the ball when he was hampered by the cue ball

Surely that's not right

Do you prefer the final day layout of this year's event (presuming you are familiar with the bleacher layout from last year)? On video feels like last year's bleacher layout provided better overall atmosphere. I could be totally wrong about that. Just curious. Cheers!
