“It was the first time that the World Billiards and Snooker Championships were being conducted continuously. He thought he would burn himself out, so he started focusing a lot on his fitness and prepared well physically.
When questioned about how he was feeling before the snooker final, Advani said, “He was nervous at the beginning of the snooker final as there are silly thoughts running in mind always. He had won the first billiards championship, and so then he got the bronze in the other billiards final. For him, it was a loss because he was only thinking about the gold, and then when the snooker came he finally said that there is the chance to win another title, but if he looses, he will go back with only one title. But eventually, he won the championship and felt good about it.”
Pankaj Advani became the first player to win the World Billiards Championships and World Snooker Championships back-to-back in a couple of weeks. His hard work and commitment towards the sport have encouraged him to win 23 world titles.
