UPA US Pro Tour Championship
His last title was in the 2005 World Pool Masters. In this tournament, ”Django” defeated Johnny Archer in the finals 7-6 for the $10,000 prize. This year’s US Pro Tour Championship, now on it’s 5th year, was held at the Normandie Casino, Los Angeles. In his journey to the finals, he defeated James Burt, Mike Davis, Tony Crosby, Fabio Petroni and Mika Immonen. What’s more impressive though, is he did not allow any of his opponents more than 5 racks in a race to 11; the final four was brought down to a race to 7. Also in the final match he was down 3-6 and won 4 straight racks in an alternate break format.
Also in tournament were Filipinos Santos Sambajon and Efren Reyes. Efren was again beaten by Tony Crosby - from his memorable loss in the 2006 WPC where he missed the 9.
