Pankaj Advani, the Indian who won the World Pro Billiards Championship title at Leeds in UK, returned to his hometown Bangalore today morning.
He was welcomed with open arms by his family members, friends and fans who garlanded the 24 year old young lad at the airport.
Pankaj beat nine-time winner Mike Russell in the finals to bring the winner’s trophy home. Advani scored 2030-1253. Advani is the second Indian to win this title, first being Geet Sethi to win the same.
Though Advani already has amateurs world billiards and Snooker Championships under his belt, this is the first Professional Billiards world title.
The new Pro Billiards Champion said, “I do not know what I am speaking right now, I do not know where my thoughts are. But at the moment I am just enjoying every minute of the victory. It is yet to sink in.”
He said, “The tournament has been really draining for me. I have really had to dig deep to win some of my matches. I am really tired at the moment and would appreciate if I can speak in detail tomorrow.”
He further said, “All I can say is that I am very happy and I am extremely excited because it is a huge milestone. It is great for the game of billiards and it is great for all the cuers in the country and I hope this adds inspirational value.”
