Biado clinches second World Pool Championship crown

Carlo Biado won his second WPA World 9-Ball Championship after beating Fedor Gorst of the United States, 15-13, in the final in Jeddah on Sunday.

Biado is the only Filipino cue artist to win the title twice after dominating the 2017 edition in Doha.

The 41-year-old Biado made it to the final by beating teammate Bernie Regalario, 11-3, in an all-Filipino semifinal.

Biado will be taking home the top purse of $250,000 or P14.29 million for winning it all.
