He waited a while, but he got back to the winners’ circle this past weekend (Aug. 19-20). Greg Sandifer won the opening stop on the 2023 Cuetec DFW 9-Ball Tour back in January. He didn’t compete in stops 2, 4, 6 or 7, while finishing way out of the money in March at Stop #3 and in the tie for 5th/6th back in May’s Stop #5. He came into the weekend’s event at #6 in the tour’s standings. Sandifer’s opponent in the double-elimination finals at Stop #8, Gus Briseno, missed the tour’s first two stops and with a single win in April, came into Stop #8 in 2nd place in the tour’s standings behind Tim Larson, who did not compete in Stop #8. When the dust settled on Sunday evening in Fort Worth, TX, it was Briseno sitting atop the standings, now ahead of Larson, with Sandifer, a scant 15 points behind Larson.
What a difference a day, or in this case, a weekend can make. Eight stops down, three to go in the Cuetec DFW-Ball Tour’s 2023 season and with 250 points separating 1st and 5th place in the standings (200 points for a win, 160 for runner-up and 125 for 3rd place), the tour championship title is pretty much up for grabs. The $2,000-added Stop #8 drew 51 entrants to Rusty’s Billiards in Fort Worth.
