Any news on Yang Ching-Shun
- Thread starter minhiub

The last i heard of Yang was when he beat Orcollo in a challenge match. 2009 i think. After that nothing. He's one of my personal favourites. I always thought he would eventually win a world championship title. It would be a real shame if he retired without doing so. Such a talent.
Yang Ching Shun had returned to the pool scene from his short-lived retirement recently. He played in the Beijing Open 1-2 weeks ago and lost to Nick Ven Den Berg in the top 16. His last tournament played before this was a year ago in the Asian Games. Definitely one of my favorites of all time. I consider him to have one of the best offensive games in 9-ball of all time - ridiculous shot-making and jumping.
Yang is at his best in a money match. Maybe the best there is. I'd call him the money king of planet Earth.
Jay, can you tell me more about yangs money matches?
No one beats him, at least not too often. He has beaten Dennis Orcullo twice in the Philippines in big money matches. This while Dennis was the money king of the Philippines.
Good to hear that he's a great money player. I think I watched the 9 ball money game with Dennis Orcullo. It would be nice to see him capture a first place in one of the top events like the WPC 9 ball, he deserves it.
I've heard two rumors so far....one is that he doesn't have a sponsor and the other is that he is having some sort of health problem. I hope neither are the case, he is one of my favorite players for sure.
Jay, could you tell me who is the best money player today at the Philippines.
After talking to a lot of Taiwanese people, they said that Yang was and still is the best money king in the world.
