It's on ESPN this morning, 10AM PDT, 1PM EST. You MUST watch Monica play in this event. She is just outstanding! Some of the best pool ever by a woman on TV.
Thanks for the heads up Jay. Johnnyt
Watched most of it, the finals was fantastic. I always record every Pool broadcasts onto my DVR. I just wanted to mention, is this an 09 tournament? I find it really odd that a great tournament, like this SD classic, is not recorded on HD. Yet, I think 2 weeks ago, they showed the International Speed Pool Tournament on ESPN2, and that was recorded in HD. Does speed pool really have a bigger fan base or bring in higher revenues? I was amazed at the quality, never seen a pool match in HD. Even the pocket cams were HD, supposively the smallest HD cameras.
She played great in both matches I watched, the out she made to win her second game was pretty sporty!

She got out from spots where any other player would have played safe, including most men.
I particularly liked the game where she jumped the two and three in back to back, and still had a super tough run out. Those long combinations were mind boggling as well. They both screamed SAFETY and she shot them in anyway. Bravo Monica!
By the way, these were not buckets they were playing on. They were very tough Gold Crown V's with tight 4.5" pockets. You had to hit it in the hole or it was not going.
