The final matches of this year’s Dynamic Billard European Championships for Men, Women and Wheelchair Athletes have been played. The last titles were taken by Kamila Khodjaeva (BEL), Henrik Larsson (SWE) and Francisco Sanchez-Ruiz (ESP).
2016 歐洲撞球錦標賽於今晨在奧地利的蓬高地區聖約翰 (St. Johann i.Pg)結束最後 9號球賽程後，順利落幕。最終分別由比利時 Kamila Khodjaeva, 瑞典好手 Henrik Larsson 與西班牙新星 Francisco Sanchez-Ruiz 摘下桂冠。
The men’s final was more or less a one man show from Sanchez-Ruiz. His opponent Joshua Filler (GER) could not find into the match at all and when he was at the table he seemed to make the wrong decisions regarding his shot selection. All of this lead to a huge domination of Sanchez-Ruiz in the final and consequently the match ended with a high result of 9:3 in his favor.
男子組方面，決賽更像是一場 Sanchez-Ruiz 的個人秀。他的對手是年僅18歲的德國新星 Joshua Filler，在此前的4年 Filler 都是參加青少年歐錦賽，他在四年的青少年歐錦賽中，共拿下6金3銀2銅的成績。今年則是他第一次獲得資格參予歐錦賽。Filler 一路過關斬將，在準決賽中以 9:5 淘汰愛沙尼亞好手 Denis Grabe 打進決賽。 然而首度打入到決賽的 Filler 在比賽中卻始終無法進入到自己的狀態。Sanchez-Ruiz 主宰了整場比賽，他幾盡完美的優異表象讓他以9:3擊敗對手，奪得冠軍。

The women’s final was a story with a great comeback for Khodjaeva. Her opponent Ina Kaplan (GER) looked like the sure winner being 6:2 up on Khodjaeva. But somehow the tide turned in favor of the Belgian. She started to rule the match and Kaplan seemed to be nervous. She missed more and more shots and consequently, Khodjaeva got closer and even tied the match hill-hill at 6:6. The final rack was an affair of nerves and safety play where Khodjaeva had the better ending on her side.
女子組決賽在曾奪得2012年青少年世錦賽冠軍的比利時 Kamila Khodjaeva 與德國一姊 Ina Kaplan 之間展開。Khodjaeva 開賽後似乎還沒能進入到自己的狀態及節奏，轉眼間比數來到 2:6 的絕對落後，Kaplan 僅差一局就能拿下勝利。Khodjaeva 並沒有因此而放棄比賽，仍然繼續奮戰 展現韌性，專注於每一球，在暫停回來後情況似乎有了轉變。 Kaplan 似乎開始有先緊張，接連出現幾個失誤，這也讓 Khodjaeva 一局局的拿下，讓比數越來越接近，甚至將比數追平來到雙方進入搶尾局。決勝局中雙方呈現攻防大戰，Ina 在3號球做了防守，但留下一個跳球的機會，3、6號在中袋的組合球，Kamila成功跳進後，接下來換到 Kamila 也打了一計安全球，在對手解球犯規後，接手獲得自由球並順利清光台面，反敗為勝奪下桂冠。

In the wheelchair division, the final match took a similar course than the men’s final did. Henrik Larsson dominated the match over Kurt Deklerck (BEL) and took a start-to-finish victory with 7:2 which was never really endangered. Today, Larsson was simply too strong for Deklerck.
最後在輪椅組方面，瑞典好手 Henrik Larsson 在今年歐錦賽的狀態火熱，延續先前的好手感。在決賽中主導著整場比賽，最終憑藉著強勁的發揮以7:2輕鬆擊敗了比利時的 Kurt Deklerck 並拿下個人在今年的第2塊金牌。輪椅組總共進行8號、9號及10號球 三個項目，Larsson 包辦了8號及9號球雙金。
