Frédéiric Caudron could raise his cue after the win: he meets Zanetti in the final.

SCHILTIGHEIM - The disarming smile of mr. Claude Fath even exceeded the joy of Frédéric Caudron. The Agipi boss saw his dream come through with two of his players in the final of his tournament. Frédéric Caudron, who won in the evening session against Jae Ho Cho (50-36 in 22) and Marco Zanetti (who defeated Dick Jaspers after an incredible thriller) play the final battle tomorrow.

For the first time in six editions, a player of the famous Agipi team will lift the trophy after the final match (Sunday final at 21.00). ,,That's a dream, it is unbelievable’’,  beamed Claude Fath.

Frédéric Caudron came to the final for the second time in Agipi. He lost his first against Dick Jaspers. The Belgian played another final last week in the Lausanne Billiard Masters, where he lost to Zanetti.

Both players, who are in great form, meet again tomorrow. Zanetti needed one of the best fights of his career to be there. Caudron won two times by a big margin in the quarterfinals (vs. Martin Horn) and semifinals (Jae Ho Cho).

,,I did not feel hundred percent, but my opponents could not threaten me,'' said Caudron, who built up a gap without making very high runs.

The tournament therefore will get another winner after two times Dick Jaspers, twice Torbjörn Blomdahl and once Sung-Won Choi.

Mr. Claude Fath: ,,I have seen a crazy match today between Marco Zanetti and Dick Jaspers. We now look forward to a wonderful final. I don’t care who wil be the winner. I am very happy that it will be a player of my Agipi team.’’

The schedule for tomorrow (Sunday):

10.30: 7/8e place: Martin Horn-Lütfi Cenet.

14.00: 5th/6th place: Dani Sánchez-Tayfun Tasdemir

17.00: 3rd/4th place: Dick Jaspers-Jae Ho Cho

21.00: Final Marco Zanetti-Frédéric Caudron.
