CHENGDU, China — Chezka Centeno suffered a stinging 6-7 loss to China's Yu Han to take the silver medal in the women's 10-ball event of the World Games on Wednesday at the Civil Aviation Flight University of China - Tianfu Campus Gymnasium here.

Centeno crawled back from 0-3 deficit and was actually one rack away from claiming the gold, but a crucial scratch on a safety play for the first ball spelled doom and gave Han the opening she took advantage of in the deciding frame.

Smiling despite the defeat, the Zamboanga City native was still grateful for the experience in her second World Games appearance.

"I did not expect that mistake. But I'm still happy," Centeno said. "This medal is for our country. I hope I still made you all proud."

Centeno became the second silver medalist for Team Philippines after Kaila Napolis won the same color in women's 52kg jiujitsu and on top of Carlos Baylon Jr.'s bronze in wushu sanda 56-kilogram class.

Before the finals, the Filipina ace beat Mayte Ropero of Spain in the quarterfinals and hometown bet Shasha Lui in the semis.

In the preliminaries, Centeno dominated Savannah Easton of the United States before yielding to Han in her second match.
