‘Perfect Guy’ Javier Palazon (35, Huons) shot the first ‘perfect cue’ at the World Championships.
Palazon scored 15 points at once in the first inning of the 3rd set against Choi Won-joon on the second day of the PBA Round of 32 group stage of the ‘SK Rent-A-Car PBA-LPBA World Championship 2023’ held at JTBC Studio Ilsan, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do on the 4th, and scored ‘TS Shampoo Perfect Q’ ‘.
Palazon, which achieved the first Perfect Q in this competition, was honored with the ‘TS Shampoo Perfect Q’ award. In addition, Palazon was named as the 11th of the season and the 22nd Perfect Q in PBA history.
The ‘TS Shampoo Perfect Cue’ award is a prize of 1,000 to the first player to score all points in a set (PBA 15 points, LPBA 11 points, including the last set) regardless of the opponent’s score and innings in each PBA Tour tournament. It is a special award that awards 10,000 won. 카지노사이트
In the World Championship, which is the ‘King of Kings’, twice the prize money of the existing Perfect Q is awarded for a limited time. As a result, Palazon received 20 million won in prize money with this award.
On this day, Palazon boasted a ‘perfect’ performance against Wonjun Choi. Palazon, who took the lead by winning the first set 15-9 (11 innings), widened the gap by winning 15-4 in 5 innings with 8 high runs in the 2nd set. In the third set, Choi won-joon’s mistake of missing the first shot took advantage of 15 points at once and finished the game with a set score of 3-0.
Immediately after the match, Palazon said, “This is the first Perfect Q since my professional debut. In addition, after the game, I found out that the prize money was twice the original amount. He was incredibly happy,” he said.
He continued, “My opponent (Choi Won-joon) is a PBA winner, and I didn’t relax as much as I won against Jo Jae-ho in the first match. Even though my opponent didn’t look good, I tried to focus on my game. The last two-bank shot was also lucky. It was an unbelievable moment,” he explained.
Finally, he said, “I will focus on the game in front of me.” He conveyed his goal, saying, “I will do my best to run without slowing down.”
Palazon worked part-time at a supermarket toy section while playing billiards, and went to Korea at the same time as the launch of professional billiards in 2019. Palazon recorded a ‘perfect win’ in the 4th game (Crown Haitai Championship) of the 2020-21 season, reaching the top without giving up a single set. Even after two more seasons, the record has not been broken.
