When Earl has his head screwed on right, he's still capable of beating anyone. A few years back at the Turning Stone, he beat Shaw and SVB by lopsided scores. Played great and steam rolled them both! I believe that was the year he lost a very close final to Shane (13-11 or so).Gorst just played Earl a few days ago in an exhibition.
Earl won 9 ball 9-3
Gorst won 8 ball 5-3
Total session score of Earl 12 Fedor 8.
