MEN
Yan becomes youngest ever World Champion


At the age of 14 usually it remains hard to win a Junior championship but Yan Bingtao of China registered himself into records of IBSF to become the youngest ever World Champion in snooker. He surpass his compatriot Zhou Yuelong who became the world champion at the age of 15 last year.

Yan Bingtao today lifted the 2014 SEAWAYS IBSF World Snooker trophy after defeating Muhammad Sajjad of Pakistan 8-7. As the score-line says, match was not so easy and had many fold till the end.

Initially it appeared that Yan will make his way easy but Sajjad was also not leaving any stone unturned. At the end of first session, Yan was leading by 2 frames (6-4) but when second session started, Sajjad rejected Yan's claim of winning 11th frame despite having a break of 60 points.

From there two more wins put Sajjad ahead on Yan (7-6) and it appeared that now Sajjad's victory is mere formality but it was not accepted to Yan and he flipped the side to win back to back two frames to become youngest ever world champion.

With this win, as usual, Yan also wins the ticket of Professional tour.

Yan's journey was not so easy. He reached the final defeating Kritsanut Lertsattayathorn (7-5) in Semis, World Champion in all formats, Pankaj Advani (6-4) in quarters and India's National 6Reds Champion, Varun Madan (5-1) in last-16 stage.

Defeating 12 times World Champion, Pankaj Advani and that too before his home crowd was ofcourse remained a huge task for Yan.

WOMEN
Wendy Jans proves her supremacy third time in a row


Wendy Jans of Belgium today defeated Russian Challange Anastasia Nechaeva 5-2 to win her career's fourth world title (third in a row).

Anastasia won the first frame where she made a break of 44 and Wendy replied her well by scoring 42 points break in next. Anastasia once again got on the lead 2-1 by winning one more frame but after that Wendy did not give her any chance get into game. Three consecutive breaks of 40, 43 and 30 points in next three frames were enough to break the rhythm of Anastasia.

Just one frame away from her fourth title, Wendy found no big hurdle and registered 5-2 win over Russian girl.

In women's category, it is a record that out of total 10 world championships, Wendy has reached into finals eight times and four times she converted that entry into title win.

MASTERS
Phisit Chandsri retained his Masters title


In the Master's category, Phisit Chandsri retained his title that he won first time in Latvia last year. He had a very tough opponent in today's final and seriously had spent a tough time on the table.

The match went into the decider and could be anyone's game because in the frame before Darren had scored a break of 63 points to get into decider and snatching a match away from him by winning a decider is just like snatching a anything from the jaws of lion. Applaud to Phisit that finally he did so.

Phisit had a good start of match and had pocketed first two frames but Darren was not just a mute spectator. He responded handsomely with four consecutive frames win to gain 4-2 lead. However, Phisit was also not interested in giving away the match and cracked his journey by wining 7th frame scoring 49 points break. He further pocketed next two frames to lead 5-4. As mentioned, 10th frame went to Darren with a magnificent break of 63 points to set decider.

If there would be any loose string from Phisit, Darren for sure would've returned as champion but Phisit stopped him well by posting break of 57 points and won the championship 6-5.


With this the 2014 IBSF World Championship concluded. We will meet again next year with new excitement of new championships.

Hopefully next year the World Under-21 will take place in Romania (TBC), World Doubles and World Disabled in Egypt (TBC), World Team and 6Reds in Pakistan, World Billiards in Leeds and World Snooker in South Africa.
