Xiaoting "9-Ball Pool Queen" Pan

Xiaoting Pan has been dubbed 9-Ball Pool Queen by the press in Asia. Born in China February 25, 1982, she now resides in Shanghai, China and travels to the U.S. to play in WPBA events. She represented China in the Asian Games in December of 2006. In that same year, she was named the Women’s Professional Billiard Association’s (WPBA) Rookie of the Year.

Pan was runner-up at the WPBA’s inaugural event in 2007, the Carolina Classic, but took her first tour win at the Great Lakes Classic later on, besting Sweden’s Helena Thornfeldt 7-2.  In 2008, Pan won the GenerationPool.com Championship in Charlotte, NC by defeating Ga Young Kim in the finals.

Pan lists the Chinese Athletes Education Foundation as a charity affiliate. She is sponsored by Xing Pai and Mengnui Dairy.
