Efrin Reyes, left, of the Phillipines, puts an eagle eye on a ball

on his way to winning the 1994 Q-Master Billiards U.S. Open 9-Ball

Championship Sunday. Reyes took a $15,000 purse for his troubles.

Barry Behrman, host of the event, hugs his 82-year-old father,

above, in appreciation of the latter's life-long support. It was the

gift of a pool table years ago that launched Behrman on his career.

The U.S. Open is in its 19th year and is the longest running

professional tournament in billiards.
