Ko Ping Chung's comeback

Ko Ping Chung use the rest to play a jump shot

Ko Ping Chung is most probably the player labelled by everyone as the Comeback King of this Championship. After surviving a hill-hill lost with Singapore's Toh Lian Han, whose cue ball went in off after making the 9 ball on the final rack, Ping Chung survived yet another similiar fate in his Last 16 match.

Playing against Alan Tan, he was looking at a 3-8 score, trailing 5 racks behind with 2 more racks for Alan to win the match. He slowly took rack by rack and with Lady Luck on his side, he won the remaining 7 racks required and beat Alan Tan 10-8.

Playing against former world number one Philippines Dennis Orcullo, again he had Lady Luck very close to him and after leading 8-1, Dennis shook Ping Chung's hand to concede the match.

Ko Ping Chung plays Philippines Carlo Biado tomorrow in the Semi Finals match, whom beaten the defending champion Lee Vann Corteza in his Quarter Final match.2
