Here are some stats from the double- and single-elimination portions of the 2018 World 14.1 Tournament played August 16-19 at The Spot Billiards Cafe and Lounge in Nanuet, NY. Pay-per-view streaming was provided by AzBtv. Thorsten Hohmann defeated Tony Robles in the final match to win his 5th title in this event.

The conditions for this event include:
- 9-foot Connelly table with generous pockets and blue Z9 BilliardCloth;
- Aramith balls;
- triangle rack;
- foul on all balls;
- Rack your own in most matches;
- lag for opening break.
Attempted Scoring Innings means the player's total number of innings for the game minus the number of innings that he played only a safety or an intentional foul (no attempt to score a point).
PPI is Points per Inning based on the total number of innings in the game for that player. [Note: I am calling this measure Points per Inning rather than Balls per Inning to be a bit more precise in the definition, since the number of points a player is credited with in a game can be quite different from the number of balls he pocketed.]
PPASI is Points per Attempted Scoring Inning, i.e., points per inning based on the number of Attempted Scoring Innings in the game for that player.
The stats are for 13 matches -- 12 played on the Connelly table and one (Match #7 below) on a Diamond table. These 13 matches were 42% of the total of 31 matches played in those two portions of the event. The streamed matches are listed here in the order in which they were played. Matches numbered 1-4 were in the double-elimination stage on Thursday Aug. 16, and were played to 150 points. Matches 5-12 were in the single-elimination stage on Friday and Saturday Aug. 17-18, and were played to 200 points. Match 13, the final match, was played on Sunday Aug. 19 to 300 points.
