Best (same era) scotch doubles Jack/Jill team

I'll take these 2:

Confining my choices to players whose primes coincided. I'd go with Jose Parica and Allison Fisher, based on their form in the late 1990s .... especially for the cash! Parica was a beast in action.
 
The first live pool event that I know of was the 1987 Brunswick scotch doubles invitational.

Balukas / Miz
Hopkins / Loreejon
Sigel/Ewa
Belinda / Rempe

On paper due to Balukas’s dominance in the women’s game in 1987, she and Mizerak were favored.

As usual, Sigel won. Ewa played great, but Sigel was the best partner, even when he didn’t leave her a great shot. At 27:27, he yells out, “PARTNER!” when she pockets a bank that he accidentally left her. I ended up yelling the same thing in every scotch doubles tournament I’ve played.


I think the best 9-ball team would have to have the lead player that has / had incredible recovery shotmaking, but played proper, clean patterns. He can’t be leaving the other player a lot of blood testers. So, if I fantasized a tournament today , I’d take prime:

Albin Ouschan / Jasmine Ouschan

Sigel / Corr

JL Chang / Siming Chen

Buddy Hall / Allison Fisher

Joshua Filler / Kelly Fisher

FSR / Gerda Hofstatter

Fedor / Kristina

Efren / Rubilen
