PEHLIVANOVIC, SANCHEZ RUIZ, SHAW AND PAGULAYAN HOLD COURT AT PREMIER LEAGUE POOL

Sanjin Pehlivanovic continues to lead the way at Premier League Pool by one point going into the day seven of play at the Morningside Arena, Leicester live on Matchroom.Live, Viaplay and broadcasters worldwide.

Tables / Scores

Pehlivanovic now has 15 wins to his name and finished the day in impressive fashion with a 5-4 win over two-time Mosconi Cup MVP Jayson Shaw who was 4-0 up. It came off the back of two 5-4 losses so roles reversed as he kept on top of proceedings. Shaw will begrudge that defeat but still stands in great stead to make the final day after victories over Shane Van Boening, Naoyuki Oi, and Wu Kun Lin. The Brit holds all the cards with fate in his hands with a spot in the top four as it stands.

Konrad Juszczyszyn led after day one but had a wobble midweek only to recover to ensure a spot in the weekend action. The Pole defeated Oi and Shaw in quick succession by the same scoreline 5-2 before missing out hill-hill against Pagulayan to see the Canadian leapfrog him into top four. Pagulayan was on the end of a bruising 5-0 defeat to Van Boening late on but his day began with a win over Albin Ouschan 5-2 before a defeat at the hands of Francisco Sanchez Ruiz.  Sanchez Ruiz remains in the top four after three wins from four with back-to-back evening points against Van Boening, and Wu Kun Lin.

At the end of play tomorrow, only six will remain in the competition. As it stands, Van Boening, Ouschan, Woodward, and Wu will miss out with the latter closest to the breakaway pack in the top six. Van Boening struggled for any rhythm and trails Oi who occupies the final top six spot by three points. Defending champion Ouschan meanwhile is three points off the bubble also coming after Woodward finished the day with a point against Sanchez Ruiz.

24 matches and 20 hours of Pool live daily from 11 am UK time tomorrow morning on Matchroom.Live, Viaplay, and networks worldwide. Full broadcaster list available below. Coverage can also be found on the Matchroom Pool and Multi Sport YouTube channels in selected countries.
