and the men’s was not?

 

[straightline]

$50,000 for her win. $30,000 for second.

5 sets sounds pro.

And Tkach just became the 10-Ball world champion, defeating Seoa in 5 sets 1-4, 4-3, 3-4, 4-3, 4-0.

that match was a slog, but kristina shined in the final set. she should be proud, what an achievement.

she did fly through the last set very well
finally making a ball on the break

good word ‘slog’
that’s how i would characterize
all games played on predator tables
they are so bouncy and weird, to my eye
nobody really gets the speed right

Yes, a 4-hour slog! Fouls and missed shots numbered about 40 in those 30 games, and a grand total of 10 balls were pocketed on just 10 successful breaks. B&Rs numbered just 3, but Kristina had 2 of them in that final set. Good for Kristina in hanging in there and prevailing at the end.
