An exciting and eventful day at the Dynamic Billiards St. Johann i.P. Open 2021 has come to an end. Between 09:00 in the morning, when the first round started, and 23:00 in the evening, when the last round ended, there was a lot of action, drama and excitement.
With wins over Radoslaw Babica (POL) 9:4 and outsider Christos Papgeorgiu (GRE) 9:4 the multiple European Champion from Spain David Alcaide played himself into the round of the last 16 men. He is in excellent company there. Tomasz Kaplan (POL), member of the strong Polish team, will be there as well as his team mates Mateusz Sniegocki, Radoslaw Babica, Wojciech Szewczyk, Konrad Juszczyszyn and Wiktor Zielinski. 6 out of 16 players of the last 16 participants thus come from Poland and underline their currently really strong performance. It is also remarkable that the only two remaining Austrian representatives, Mario He and Albin Ouschan, have to play each other in the next round.
Also strongly represented in the last 16 are the Spaniards. With Francisco-Sanchez Ruiz, David Alcaide and Jose Alberto Delgado, the Iberians also have very good chances to advance far in the tournament. The men’s final will take place tomorrow evening at 20:10 local time. The semi-finals will be played at 16:30 and 18:00.
