Rab Fee from Antrim has won the NIPA Blackball Masters Competition which was held in Larne on Sunday 11th April. The event is the last in our 2009/10 calendar season before our teams head off to Bridlington.
I have seen some Pool in my time but Rabs 7-0 win in the Final was the best I have ever witnessed and probably ever will. He didn't miss one single pot he went for. His opponent Stephen McWhirter from Larne who had won his Semi Final 6-0, didn't play a bad shot in the limited table time he got, he too could only sit back and admire Fee's stunning display of total Pool.
Frame 1 - Rab left his opponent with 7 reds on his 2nd visit.
Frame 2 - 2-0 after Fee took out a pinpoint finish
Frame 3 - 3-0 after an 8 ball clearance
Frame 4 - Break & Dish from Fee makes it 4-0
Frame 5 - McWhirter broke dry, Fee cleared the table 5-0
Frame 6 - Another Fee Break & Dish. 6-0
Frame 7 - Fee finishes the match with another 8 ball clearance
