While Allison Fisher had little trouble advancing
to the title match for the second time in two
touraments this year, Jeanette Lee caught a few
breaks from Jennifer Chen and turned them into a
9-6 victory.
Lee led 7-5 when Chen was able to run out after
several safety battles. At 7-6, Chen had the break
and an easy runout from the 4 out, but scratched
on the 6, giving Lee and easy out and a spot on
the hill.
From there, Lee broke and ran to advance. When
asked about Chen's mistakes, Lee didn't really
notice. "When I'm shooting I feel that I can win
at any time," Lee said. "That doesn't always
happen but that's how I feel."
For Chen, she collects another top 5 finish in two
tournaments. Last month in San Diego, Chen lost to
Fisher in the title match of the McDermott
Classic.
Fisher started the match against Hofstatter 5-0
and never looked back, winning 9-5.
Hofstatter now faces Lee in the loser's bracket
final. The next update will come after the 7 pm
finals.
