In a one-sided match, defending Champion Jasmin Ouschan (AUT) ousted Victoria Nagorna (UKR) from the 9-ball individuals.
In the beginning, Ouschan seemed to be of it. She missed some easy shots during her warm up what obviously annoyed her. And it looked like it would be an exciting match. After 4 racks, the score was 2:2. But then Ouschan stopped making mistakes and Nagorna committed more and more of them. Maybe she could not control her nerves but Ouschan grew stronger with each mistake her opponent made. No wonder, she claimed rack after rack and took the match with 7:2.
Other notable results in the women’s division include Caroline Roos (SWE) terminating Natalya Seroshtan’s (RUS) hopes for another medal in the individual competition of this year’s Dynamic European Championships.
In the men’s division, Arjan Matrizi (ALB) surprisingly defeated Nick van den Berg (NED) quite clearly with 9:3. Bahram Lotfy (DEN) took the match over Erki Erm (EST) by a whisker with 9:8. Serge Das (BEL) erased Poland’s top player Radoslaw Babica with 9:6 off the flowcharts.
There will be one more round of 9-ball individuals today. The last round will be played in the team competition.
