Centeno defeats Chinese, wins World 10-Ball championship

(UPDATE) FILIPINO billiards sensation Chezka Centeno defeated China's Han Yu in the final, 9-5, to win the WPA Women's World 10-Ball Championship at the Sportpark Klagenfurt in Klagenfurt, Austria, last Sunday.

The 24-year-old Centeno got off to a 4-1 start and preserved that advantage heading into the 14th rack, where Han, a three-time 9-ball world champion, committed a foul as she could not hit the two ball, or any ball for that matter, coming from a tough angle.
