Rory extends lead by claiming Leg 3

(L-R) Sebastian H'ng with Rory Thor

While everyone are in the midst of World Cup fever, Rory Thor chooses to focus on his game and paid off quite well as he wins Leg 3 of the National Ranking Snooker Championship 2010 at Star Snooker. He beats the talented 16 year old Penang boy Sebastian H'ng by a scoreline of 4-2, walking away with the Champion's trophy and cash prize of RM 2,500.

It was a similar scenario as both Rory and Sebastian were trailing in their Semi Final match against Lai Chee Wei and Michael Tan respectively. Both were trailing 0-2 in their matches and came back to win with the same scoreline of 4-2.

In the Final, Rory displays his playing form as the current leader in the rankings, as he races off to a 3-0 lead, playing Best of 7 frames, needing only one more frame to cross the finish line. Sebastian was not giving up that easily and wins two frames in a row to reduce the gap to trail by one frame, but that was his last winning frame as Rory steps up one gear to win the Frame 6 to claim match and Championship.

Below are the results for Semi Finals and Final.

Rasid Samy victorious in Leg 1

Rasid Samy in action

Competing actively in the pool scene for so long, Rasid Samy has yet to perform to par so far although being labeled as a natural pool player. His game has always been with a touch of Philippine flair, fancy and exciting but still lack the element to capture victory in the tournament scene. He has also qualified for numerous overseas tournament previously but with no avail to produce decent results.

Rasid Samy is all smiles

Tonight however is different as he puts up a display of superb pool play and deadly accuracy to emerge victorious in Leg 1 of National Ranking Pool Championship 2010 at Century Club. He beats Benjamin Lee with a convincing scoreline of 10-4 to walk away with RM 2,500 and the Champion's trophy

The Final first few racks were shared between them, each not willing to budge for the other to get a chance at the table. But Benjamin could only manage to level him at 4-4 and it was history from then as Rasid sped off to reel off 6 racks in a row to claim match and Championship.

Thean Mun Kit from 2K Snooker walks away with RM 2,500 cash prize and the Champion's trophy as he beats former national player Lee Hwa Meng in the Final of the Leg 2 National Ranking Snooker Championship 2010 at Club 28.

Having formerly represented Malaysia in the World Junior Snooker Championship close to 10 years back, he has yet to perform to par as one of the top players in the snooker scene.
