On July 30, Hana Card team took the field in the final round of the first leg of the 2025 - 2026 PBA Team League, against Legend team (with former 3-cushion carom billiards world champion Choi Sung-won as captain). The extremely compatible pair of Nguyen Quoc Nguyen and Murat Naci Coklu (Turkey) still competed in the first round, facing the Korean pair Choi Sung-won/Lee Sang-dae.
In recent days of competition, Quoc Nguyen and Coklu have been performing extremely well, continuously winning when playing together. However, in the final match of stage 1, the two players of team Hana Card could not maintain their winning streak. Former world champion Choi Sung-won and his teammates played very well and won dramatically 11/10.

However, on the day that the pillars Quoc Nguyen and Coklu broke their winning streak, the other players of Hana Card played explosively. At one point, Legend took a 2-1 lead against Legend. But then, Nguyen Quoc Nguyen's teammates won 3 consecutive games, thereby helping Hana Card win 4-2 overall.
Nguyen Quoc Nguyen does not need to play singles
According to the arrangement, Nguyen Quoc Nguyen will play singles in the last game (game 7). However, female player Kim Ga-young finished the match in the 6th game, so Quoc Nguyen did not need to play. In the last game, Kim Ga-young showed her mettle to come back and win narrowly 9/7 against Cha Yu-ram (Legend team).
With this victory, Hana Card team has 20 points and officially crowned the champion of stage 1 of PBA Team League 2025 - 2026, although the final round of matches has not yet ended. It can be seen that Nguyen Quoc Nguyen and his teammates had a spectacular breakthrough in the sprint stages, thereby finishing in first place of stage 1 of PBA Team League 2025 - 2026.
