Like the proverbial lily on the pond, this
world Tenpin Masters just gets bigger and
better every year.
This afternoon's opening match had the crowded
Barnsley Metrodome audience on the edge of
their seats as this match literally went pin
for pin right through to the final frames.
Al Shaikh carried just one pin forward to the
second game and they both fought tooth and
nail for victory. Blood, toil, tears and sweat
had nothing on what they both felt as they
came into the final frames and a stubborn
10-pin in the ninth frame was the undoing of
Cundy.
So. Al Shaikh now progresses to the
quarter-finals to come up against Aussie Jason
Belmonte.

Alex Liew can now officially be called the
'Comeback Kid'. 41 pins down in the sixth frame
of the first game, he managed to out four
strikes together to bring the deficit down to
eight pins.
Surprisingly, the burly Canadian went seven
frames without a strike whilst the lithe
Malaysian leftie buried each shot in the 1-2
pocket, leaving just two 7-pins and came out of
the fray with a handsome lead of seventy pins
overall.
Maybe they are dancing in the streets in Kuala
Lumpur tonight, but there will certainly be some
smiling faces at the Pyramid MegaLanes in
Petaling Jaya.
Michael's father and coach, Uhlrich, was as
surprised as his young son at the string of
nine-spares. "It's so frustrating when you bury
the ball in the pocket and don't carry all the
pins," he exclaimed.

Biboy rivera is another candidate for entry
into the 'Comeback Kid Club' but his entry has
been black balled by Paul Moor as he put
together a superb 289, the highest game of the
tournament so far.
Rivera, the 2006 WTBA Men's World Championship
Masters' titlist, suffered the having just one
strike in his first game and emerged from that
confrontation with a huge deficit to the
striking Englishman with the strange nickname of
'The Persuader'.
"He should move further right on the approach,"
said Jason Belmonte as an enlightening
co-commentator to the cool, calm and collected
Simon Golding.
Rivera probably did just that as he managed to
string quite a lot of strikes in the second game
but made no headway against Moor and now heads
home, understandably a little dejected.
