    The US Open didn't forfeit world champion for no show

    You may not like what he said ,but it is hard to argue with any validity against any of his points. A very straight up interview. Cudos. Like him or not Earl Strickland has been saying the same thing for a long time.

    What did she find?

    She may have found a very used set of pool balls .Contrary to many peoples thought, like a rock in a stream balls wear down after much use. Take an old well used ball and a new ball and put them by the rail with a torpedo level on top and see for yourself.

    Slow play/Racking issues at the US Open

    The best solution would be to have at the Open and other big tournaments maybe 4 rackers from BCA or some qualified entity in pool. Very seldom (I have been at the Open the last 5 yrs) do you have more than 2 or 3 tables racking at the same time. One ref could easily handle 3 to 4 tables. Even...

    Archer got screwed

    I was at the Open. Saw many, many very very slow players. Why the shot clock in one match out of all the matches when you were down to the last 8 to 10 players. Why not on Thursday when players were were playing 3 to 4 matches in that one day and Johnny finished at 4:45 AM Friday morning...
