Mostly sweet, Hu. For all my observations, the biggest picture is that Matchroom's commitment to continuing to improve and develop its professional pool product is on full display, and their exceptional productions continue to raise the bar for our sport.
It's no secret in these AZB parts that I'm Matchroom's biggest fan, but they have earned both my respect and my trust through their sustained excellence in delivering great events and growing the sport. I just hope fans, players and sponsors alike support them to the max as they diligently pave the way for better times in our sport.
Pool has been in need of leadership and organization for as long as I have been around it with brief exceptions. Matchroom is providing that, over fifty years too late for me! Nothing I hate worse than blind fans of anything, be it a person or organization. An intelligent and honest fan is a very good thing though!
I was very busy with the aftermath of Ida and some personal things already scheduled so I didn't see a moment of this event but I have high hopes for future events with Matchroom at the helm. We have long needed strong leadership.
