by Carolina Fernandez

The Tiger Canadian Women’s Pool Tour held their third tour stop at Pool Paradise in Waterloo, ONT, May 5, in which Naomi Williams pulled a 3-0 hat trick CWPT record win.

Sunday saw the remaining six players return, with Brittany Bryant ousting Carrie Dwyer 6-5 and Darlene Gardiner eliminating Susan Wipper in another 6-5 match. Dwyer and Wipper took home fifth place. Now on fire, Gardiner advanced to best Bryant, who settled for fourth place, and reach the semifinals with Williams, who had just suffered a loss to Maureen Seto in the hot seat match.

With the score knotted at 5-all in the semifinals, Williams ran out the next two games to reach the hill but rattled the 5 ball in the side. Gardiner is finally able to pick up her cue but scratches on the 6 ball, handing the match to Gardiner, who won 8-5.

In the double-elimination finals, both Seto and Williams kept the audience enthralled, as Williams took control of the table in the first set to win 8-3. The second set went longer, with the players tying at hill-hill. Funny shape on the 2 ball led to Seto sitting in her chair as Williams came back to the table to dish up for her 8-7 win.

Results:
1st Naomi Williams
2nd Maureen Seto
3rd Darlene Gardiner
4th Brittany Bryant
5th Susan Wipper
Carrie Dwyer
