US Open 9-ball updates thread..

Trump is very good at switching to his right (opposite) hand- perhaps that comes up more in snooker due to the 12 foot table
 
Early Christmas for Trump as Santa Claus Theron gives a present for Trump to get on hill 10-9
 
Hill Hill for Trump and Theron.

Yapp is an absolute monster, continuing his reign of terror 11-3.
 
Well the Trump run is over. I think he did just about as well as I expected.

Ran over 2 guys without a FR
Ran over over 1 guy that was 733
Got ran over by someone in the 800s
And went double hill with a guy rated 741
 
That was a good game, it could have gone either way but I think Judd had reached level.

Well played to Theron he held his nerve and played solid…only question for me now is who I’m I going support?

So that sort of sets Trump to be the equivalent of a FR 740??

I think it pegs him around mid 700s, but with like 5 robustness lol.

I dunno, seems right? The guy has a world class stroke and fundamentals. He for sure seemed nervous here, but has played for bigger cash and much, much bigger audiences. He's clearly not writing on a blank slate, but also looks like he just walked into a pool room for the first time the other week.

Trump has never, to my knowledge, ever held himself out as God. He's been super humble, and obviously working to promote and market the event for Matchroom. His interview was as classy as it gets. "I'm here to have fun and excited to watch the really top guys finish this up."
