U.S. OPEN 2026, Frisco, Texas, August 25-30

Feijen is such a nice guy away from the table, but when he's playing, he always looks like he's going to stomp on his opponent's head! One of my all-time favs.

If he knew what he knows about the game now 15-20 years ago, he'd have many more titles than he already does. This could apply to lots of other players, I suppose, but I am not sure I have seen a player's game grow so much between his mid to late 20s to his late 40s.
I think he could be top 5 now even. But he has made it clear that family comes first
 
Rdiculous.

Agreed. Moritz only has one bad habit - how he places his chalk.
So you’re a slow player too huh? Look everyone that is a serious player should have a “process”, what others call a PSR. But when players in a game as straightforward as 9 ball have to recheck their shot line, angle on the next ball, etc. 2,3 or 7 times then that’s ridiculous. That kind of over evaluation and analysis is exactly as I stated in my first post, gamesmanship or an individual that doesn’t trust his instincts or training. As some would say, it ain’t rocket science
 
I like the central location. It can be like an 8 or 10 hour drive from so many parts of the country.
It's also reasonably priced. I looked yesterday at driving down and could get a room at the Embassy Suites for $150 a night.

Now, accessing the website to try to buy a ticket to the tournament itself didn't really work out. Kept getting errors and wouldn't allow me to buy any tickets LOL
 
I tried it and made it in the side first try...then I missed it the next 10🤷🙄
I've been setting it up. Can get close, but haven't drained one. But the 2-way is so easy once you know how to hit it. Miss the side and the 9 ends up where it was and the cb is right at the head of the table.
 
missed this. a "cocked hat" bank? long short long in the side

Short-long-short to the side. (Filler's was the 8-ball at the UK Open)

Great 2-way shot with the right speed. The OB tracks back where it was and the CB ends up at the head of the table. The side just happens to be in the neighborhood for the OB and it's bending that way from the spin.

Kind of pleased the Ko brothers and Chua aren't playing.

You shouldn't be allowed to play in the US Open or World Championship if you don't play in other WNT Events.
Its called 'open' for a reason. The top 128 are WNT with the rest( the open part) coming from qualy's, etc. For someone who posts on this about every 45seconds you really have no clue.
 
Yikes, Bijsterbosch wins 4 in a row to get to the hill against Shane. In the 14th rack, Shane scratches trying to get aggressive on a kick safe, Bijsterbosch gets a jelly roll after a poor positional play. Not looking good for SVB!
