Billiards: Nguyen Quoc Nguyen and his teammates hit 'perfect shots', making a spectacular comeback

Nguyen Quoc Nguyen opened the match with a great comeback victory, contributing greatly to helping his team win the final victory and rise to the top of the rankings of the first round of PBA Team League (Korean professional 3-cushion carom billiards tournament) this season.

On the afternoon of July 28, Nguyen Quoc Nguyen's Hana Card team took the field in the 7th round of the PBA Team League 2025 - 2026 billiards tournament, facing the Laon team. The first game was a doubles match, when Nguyen Quoc Nguyen and Murat Naci Coklu (Türkiye) competed with the Korean pair Kim Jae-geun/Noh Byeong-chan.

Quoc Nguyen and his teammates only needed 1 turn to win.

The two players from Laon team started the game very well, with a series of 6 in the first round of the match, taking the lead with a significant advantage in both points and spirit. When it seemed that Hana Card would have difficulty in the opening game, Nguyen Quoc Nguyen and Coklu had an extremely satisfying response.

Quoc Nguyen and Coklu coordinated extremely well and took turns scoring. The Turkish player had 2 accurate a-ban shots to bring home 4 points (in PBA, successful shots touching the ice first will count as 2 points). Meanwhile, Vietnamese player Nguyen Quoc Nguyen showed his class when solving difficult ball shapes well. Just like that, the 2 players of Hana Card had a "perfect cue" (ending the game in just 1 turn) to make a spectacular comeback to win 11/6 against the Laon pair, bringing a smooth start.

In the 5th game, Nguyen Quoc Nguyen played a singles match against Laon captain Kim Jae-geun. The Vietnamese player lost with a score of 7/11. However, Hana Card still won a dramatic 4-3 victory over Laon.

It can be said that this was a match of comebacks. Hana Card was at one point behind 2-3, but won 4-3. In the 7th (final) game, Shin Jung-ju (team Hana Card) almost lost when Oh Tae-jun (team Laon) led 4/10. However, Shin Jung-ju had a cool 7-point series to win 11/10 in the deciding game.

This victory helps Hana Card team move up the rankings of the first stage of PBA Team League 2025 - 2026. At this time, Hana Card owns 14 points, equaling the achievement of the team leading the rankings, SK Direct (of Ngo Dinh Nai).
