Dennis Orcollo won the gold medal in Ten Ball a little while ago at the 2019 SEA (Southeast Asia) Games being held in the Philippines. This is a very important Olympic style competition held annually in Southeast Asia. Players compete in all forms of sports - soccer, rugby, tennis, golf, bowling, billiards, swimming, gymnastics and many more. The competing countries include Thailand, Malaysia, Phillipines, Singapore, Viet Nam and several others.
Dennis had to win six straight matches, all races to nine, single elimination. I do know he beat Aloysius Yapp in the semis and Do The Kien from Viet Nam in the finals 9-8, with a stirring run out at hill-hill! These are both world class players. Carlo Biado also represented the Philippines in this event.
This is a very prestigious win and he will probably get something like a million P bonus for winning gold. That's 20K in our dollars.
This match was shown on live TV over there and Dennis' win will be front page sports news in all the newspapers today. Congrats to my buddy Dennis for being the Champion again. :thumbup:
