Parks Wins U.S. Amateur Championship

Brian Parks of Bakersfield, Calif., defeated Joseph Cole of Pelham, Ala., 11-10, in the finals of the 2009 U.S. Amateur Championship.  The hill-hill battle was a nail-bitter, much to the delight of a large audience of spectators.

The players split the 8-Ball set 4-4.  In 9-Ball, they continued to trade wins through the first 8 games.  Parks gained a narrow edge with consecutive wins in the 9th and 10th games of 9-Ball.  The 20-year-old Cole responded well under pressure, coming back to win the next two games and sending the match hill-hill.

In the 13th and final game of 9-Ball, it was Parks, the seasoned West Coast shooter, winning his first U.S. Amateur Championship title.   Cole finished as Runner-up and is no doubt a name you’ll be hearing more in the future.
Defending champion Travis Gunn of Hewitt, Texas, finished in 3rd Place, losing only to Parks and Cole.  Dean Vince of Wesley, Chapel, Fla., finished 4th.  Daniel Gambill of Hickory, N.C., and 2008 Runner-up Chris Walls of High Springs, Fla., tied for 5th Place.

AGE LIMITS

Please be advised that even though APA allows players to play who are 18 years of age or older. There are a lot of establishments who require you to be 21 years old to enter their establishment. This is California State law. There are no exceptions to this law. If one of your players who is under the age of 21 is found to be in one of these bars during league play, that player will be removed from your roster immediately and suspended from the APA. League play does not justify breaking a law. Please be advised that some establishments have age requirements after a certain time of the evenings.
