The amazing thing is that the most wide open table ended up being his last.
From what I can see this was a mentally draining run that finally got the best of him. Just goes to show you that even the easiest of shots demands full focus.
Thanks again !!

There was a lot of pressure, too. He did not discover the challenge until the last day. His countryman, Konstantin Stepanov had already qualified with a 140. At the time the eight spot was taken up by John Schmidt with a 103. Chinakhov hit a 99 and a 100, but could not quite get there and he was running out of time.
Lots of drama. Thorsten tried again and again and was knocking down 70s and 80s but stalled out at 97. Until Niels broke through with his 161, knocking John Schmidt out, he too was stalling at around 97. Nick Van Den Berg hit 99 and 98. Lots of guys knocking on the door that last day.
By the way, here are two more. Getting tired of doing new threads. My computer at home is working on a couple of Corey runs, too. Darren 122
