On the evening of August 6, Cho Myung-woo took to the field in the final match of the Korean national 3-cushion carom billiards tournament, facing his senior Kim Haeng-jik. The player nicknamed "child prodigy" continued to show his high performance, thereby winning convincingly and being crowned champion.
