Nice final 8.

Allison Fisher vs Kelly Fisher
Have you noticed that since her runnerup finsih at the BCA "Enjoypool.com" Open, Allison Fisher has won 16 straight WPBA matches? Kelly Fisher certainly has a chance, but Allison is really in form right now, and seems a very logical choice.

Abbink vs Ellerby
This could be a good one, but I'm picking Sarah Ellerby, whose game has matured nicely in the last couple of years.

Pan vs GY Kim
Ga Young Kim has been a thorn in Pan's side this year, and seems to have her number since they split the two exciting finals at the Carolina classic and Michigan City. Pan may be #3 and Ga Young #4, but Ga Young seems a slight favorite here. I'll pick Pan, though I think she's the underdog in this one.

Corr vs Webb
This should be a good one. Karen has had a very erratic year, but when she's on, she's near unbeatable. Kostanian and Villareal managed to keep it close in their matches with Karen, and I expect Monica to do the same. I'll pick Karen here, but just barely, in a double hill thriller.

Congratulations and good luck to the final eight, which includes of the top six ranked players on the tour. May the best lady win.

This is my guess

Kelly over Allison
Abbink over Ellerby
Pan over Ga Young Kim
Corr over Webb

With Pan winning it all.

I am now pissed off,unhappy and contemplating ( If possible) To go to Chinnok winds tournament in Oregan next month just for cheering Kim Shaw and see that she will meet allison in the finals.Ofcourse I will do some elbow bending with joan Ashton and Racheal Abbink:

I will say this. The WPBT fields are VERY strong now! To make the final four is quite an accomplishment. And lo and behold, here are Allison and Karen yet again. Two remarkable players. Both HOF'ers in my opinion!

 

[Blackjack]

XTP makes the TV rounds again! I like that!

 

[akaTrigger]

Weird, the WPBA website shows Xpan as the winner?

Unless my friend texted me wrong, but her exact words are: "ga young kim annihilated xiaoting 9 to 2."

The updated brackets show that the final 4 are
Karen Corr Vs XTP
Allison Fisher Vs Sarah Ellerby

Hopefully the info is correct...

Oh.. and on the lighter side... here is the WPBA picture of the week...

 

[kcpoolfan]

is karen being shy? there are no pics of her posted on the website? is anyone there? does anyone have any pics of her?

Maybe he just read the score wrong? Though the WPBA site could be wrong, that has happened plenty of times...
