Losing bitterly, Tran Quyet Chien missed the opportunity to win World Games gold

On the morning of August 13, Tran Quyet Chien entered the match with Cho Myung Woo, the number 1 player in Korea. Previously, the matches between the two were always exciting and thrilling.

This time, a similar scenario was repeated, even better than what had happened before. Tran Quyet Chien and Cho Myung Woo created tense chases that lasted until the last turns.

There was a time when the Vietnamese player took the lead 25-20 but was still equalized by the opponent. Neither player showed much superiority over the other.

When the score was 37-37, the turning point happened. Tran Quyet Chien only needed 3 more points to win.

He did well on the first two shots, opening up a simple ball shape. But then Quyet Chien unfortunately missed, leaving him with only 39 points.

Cho Myung Woo revived hope and did not miss the opportunity. He hit a 3-pointer, coming back to win narrowly 40-39.

For Tran Quyet Chien, this bitter defeat caused him to miss the chance to enter the World Games final. Therefore, his chance to win a first gold medal also disappeared.

Currently, Tran Quyet Chien still has one match left for the bronze medal. If he wins, it could be a consolation prize for the player currently ranked 3rd in the world .

Since the beginning of the year, Tran Quyet Chien has been quite "unlucky" in the international arena. He has not won a World Cup even though he has played consistently. At the World 3-cushion carom billiards team tournament, he and Bao Phuong Vinh lost in the final match.

At the World Games, Tran Quyet Chien continued to fail in the semi-finals when he seemed certain to win.
