2001 U.S. OPEN 9-BALL CHAMPIONSHIPS The 2001 US Open 9-Ball Championships attracted 200 plus players with promise and the premise that, “If I can master my emotions, I can win.” From the U.S. we had the usual suspects. Strickland looking for a sixth, Kennedy for a second, Hall, Varner, and Rempe never looking to retire, and the new breed at the ready captained by Deuel and Immonen. It is also great to have Hatch back. Japan sent Tanaka, Mexico--Martinez, Italy--Petroni, The Netherlands proffered Feijen (pronounced “fine”), and we had Stalev--back from the USSR. In our twofer tape 269B-04, we can watch Hatch shoot a .977 as he closes out Martinez, while Deuel dominates Nevel with a
.925. There is some real pool to learn here. In 269B-07 Kennedy pours it on when it counts over Davenport. Tape 269B-01 is the best match by both players as Varner digs deep to muster that innermost gumption that never gives up. 269B-12 manifests top notch performances by Immonen and “The Young Lion,” Alex Pagulayan. 269B-14 shows Strickland’s strength of will as newbie Niels Feijen hangs by the talons in this hill-hill nail biter. 269B-16 Deuel shows that he is the man to beat as he trounces the current world champion 11-0. Mathews, Vickery, Hall, Rempe, and Danny D, share the booth duties.
Deuel - three wins this year
