A few weeks ago, Tran Quyet Chien and Bao Phuong Vinh faced each other in the final match of SCTV Cup to compete for the championship worth 500 million VND.
The winner at that time was Bao Phuong Vinh, after a controversial situation in the last ball. Coincidentally, in the next tournament, the Ankara Billiards World Cup, both fell into the same group D.
This time, Bao Phuong Vinh no longer caused controversy when he won 40-29 after 19 rounds. But for Tran Quyet Chien, the defeat in the opening match did not shake him.
With the class of the world's second-ranked player, he quickly stood up to turn the situation around. In the second match, Tran Quyet Chien easily defeated Kang Ja In (Korea) 40-13 after 15 rounds.
Meanwhile, Bao Phuong Vinh "stumbled" against the home team player Muammer Ramet with a score of 32-40. In the final match, the young player from Binh Duong convincingly won 40-23 against Kang Ja In after 24 rounds.
Meanwhile, Tran Quyet Chien also defeated Ramet 40-29 after 22 innings. With these results, he won the first place in Group D despite losing the opening match.
Bao Phuong Vinh also advanced after finishing second. Both Vietnamese players had 2 wins and 1 loss, but Quyet Chien ranked higher thanks to his efficiency of 1,946 points/cue, higher than his junior (1,555 points/cue).
In group E, Tran Thanh Luc also advanced with the second place. Chiem Hong Thai said goodbye to the tournament early after losing 3 matches in group C.
