Efren's Revenge!
Aug 26, 2003, 4:26 PM

After losing to countryman Francisco Bustamante in the Challenge of
Champions, and to Charlie Williams in the final of the Big Apple 9-Ball
Challenge, Efren Reyes nabbed his second U.S. title of the year at the
Gabriel's Las Vegas 9-Ball Open in Las Vegas. Reyes, who exacted revenge by
beating Williams, 10-5, in the winner's bracket semi-final of the 64-player
field, defeated Dutchman Neils Feijen, 10-7, in the title match to earn the
$10,000 top prize. Reyes also won the Mid-Atlantic Open in January. Johnny
Archer finished third at the Riviera Hotel, followed by Williams in fourth place.
Feijen, the 26-year-old current European 14.1 champion, reached his spot in
the final by surviving loser's bracket shoot-outs with Alex Lely, Danny
Harriman, Max Eberle, Williams and Archer. He earned $5,000 as runner-up.
