@@shayne.7770 agree. He is painfully slow sometimes. But he took the L like a champ and never felt bitter about it. It made him a world champion. He is not my favorite player at all, I like fast player, but I have to give him huge credit in being very respectable, professional and well behaved pool player.
I noticed that Tony wants to play singles match because he like his tempo more than anyone else. In Day 2, he got all the singles match and that says it all HAHAHHA
I thought Rodney might reverse cut bank the one ball into the top right-hand pocket as we look at the table, using the six ball to make the pocket bigger.
I've realized what's better being a pool ref, as opposed to a snooker ref, ...you don't have to keep digging the colored balls out while they're on a break !!
@@robertdominicceasarsalvill2221 yea screw usa vs Europe. I want to see Europe vs Asia, including Phillippines. Would be so fun to watch. Filipinos are dope
This is from 2007 and that is the aspect ratio (4:3) they used at that time. Not much can be done about that unless you want it to be stretched out to 16:9.
@@onnyt60 Trust me this is not 4:3. It's much narrower. The balls look like eggs. And 2007 was already recorded in widescreen just not 16:9. It was actually 1:66:1. I corrected it and made a comparison: imgur.com/1FrsnjA
@@martinsawicki2716 You are absolutely right Sir. I found this also from 2007 and the aspect ratio is different. th-cam.com/video/YNIGvC-IYJQ/w-d-xo.html
Do you even know he won World Pool Championship as a full time snooker player ? Drago is a great great player with raw talent. It’s just not his game and his aspect. He is still a World Champ tho.
tiptopper da grasshopper everyone has their own games and style. All top pro players don’t have the same stand and style either. You learn it the way you feel most comfy with. Drago has a snooker background and he will never ever need to change it to adapt to pool. Same as Ronnie or Steve Davis, they play the same way they do in snooker. The game surely evolved, but it evolved in strategy, not mechanism. I would say it turns more into a negative side when people started studying the racks more than working on their skill. Pool 15 years ago is much better.
@@TRANC3ak47 his hurried shots us by far the biggest hindrance to any 9ball, 1 pocket, 8 ball etc etc novice or intermediate player. To vouch for that style of play is outdated and only holding the sport back. Snooker isn't played in 95% of pool rooms in the USA I'd bet. With that being said when Drago was relevant was when players didn't care about fundamentals! You can tell through his style he's very ego driven. So while I do respect what this man accomplished when he did, he or his style would never make it the cut in today's world 9 ball or be invited to play in the misconi cup! So get off Drago's jock strap and smell the roses.
tiptopper da grasshopper lol his playstyle is ego driven ??? You surely doesn’t know shit about snooker or pool. There are numerous of different fundamental in both games and there are alot of pro players who play really fast and they still do good. Luc Salvas plays even faster than Drago. Ever heard about Rafael Martinez ??? And young guns like Josh Filler and Wiktor Zielinski play really fast too. The pace of their game is the way they feel comfy with. It won’t do any good to their game if they slow down because it will kill their rhythm. You can’t just look at those fast player and say to yourself “don’t be like this guy”. Let set this straight, it’s more like “ I can’t be like this guy and will never be like him” because like I said above, everyone has their own play style and they don’t copy each other. You don’t wanna copy him because you can’t, that’s why. Don’t cry about it
Tony Drago has got to be one of the most under rated pool player. He is all pro and all business. Great player.
Couldn’t agree more. He’s up there with earl as far as most entertaining to watch not to mention his sniper shot making
Tony Drago suffered heart Failure recently. He almost died but fortunately he making a good recovery thank God ( ;
When was this?
Good to hear Tony's recovering. Great player and one of the most entertaining competitors of all time.
@@onnyt60 About a year or so ago. He was never a person who looked after his health.
Yup. Hes still playing too. Just a lot thinner but hes still got that tornado touch
also played in last year's WCP and looking pretty well
what a pleasure to watch the tornado at it's best !! fastest player ever !!
Rodney is a such a nice guy.
Tony called extension and shot the 2 ball a seconds later wtf HAHAHHA
The 2 most respectable and polite players in pool are probably Rodney Morris and Ralf Soquet. Class act all the time.

Souquet is just too slow and robotic in my opinion

It was definitely ‘ a race to 6 ‘ alright. Tony was awesome , Rodney was going well , just two mistakes and that was that .
Dear Matchroom, please re-upload with the correct aspect ratio. The whole match is ruined. You guys obviously have the originals. Thanks.
An Excellent come back by Drago.
Not sure which is out of proportion more, the aspect ratio or Wych's raised voice at every opportunity.
Tony: Shot clock? Oh plz...

Drago was 🔥 this mosconi
😉10:34~摩里斯解球犯規後,主動拿球桿撥了一下母球……由此可見一位選手的大將之風及其氣度。雖是不經意的習慣小動作,看在我眼裡,真的是舒服(爽!)且佩服😚
We all know that this match turned the scores around for the rest of the matches.
Go on Tony Drago. Go on Europe 🔥
The fastest billiard player 👏👏☺️☺️
Makayla Tabb is AQT though.
I thought Rodney might reverse cut bank the one ball into the top right-hand pocket as we look at the table, using the six ball to make the pocket bigger.
What is up with the poor scaling with the video? Doesn't Matchroom have the original footage?
There is nothing better than Drago in his pomp!
LOL, LMAO, HA HA HA HA, THATS A BUNCH OF CRAP.
Fantastic stuff
I've realized what's better being a pool ref, as opposed
to a snooker ref, ...you don't have to keep digging the
colored balls out while they're on a break !!
Who won this year?
Europe. They smashed USA 11-3.
Imagine commenting on a video that shows a match from 2007 who won the cup this year. No hate bro but a simple google search would have done it lol
@@Nacut6c sometimes is not about the destination my friend, but about the journey. Don’t focus on the result so much, and enjoy de match
@@10efranco deep, almost as deep as us size pool pockets
@@Nacut6c Come to the states boy. Come play some one pocket.
So much better without the stupid audience yelling of today's mosconi cups
That's what makes Mosconi great tho. Wait till you play here in the Philippines with the heat and loud audience
@@robertdominicceasarsalvill2221 yea screw usa vs Europe. I want to see Europe vs Asia, including Phillippines. Would be so fun to watch. Filipinos are dope
@@anon2414 yesss we got Reyes Cup in October I guess so Europe vs Asia will be amazing!
Wut the shot!
Should we have a new type of pool called "Tornado Pool" :v
Tony Drago is great at playing without thinking. Efren bata Reyes, who is in charge, is still thinking about shooting the ball.
Big Shame these videos are being uploaded with no care for the quality whatsoever. This aspect ratio. My god

@@onnyt60 Yeah that one is 4:3. Just amazed that Matchroom doesn't get proper recording of their own show..
You ought to just erase these warped videos. Aspect ratio is so bad
I use Drago as an example, never shoot at that anxious pace. It's awkward just watching it.

@@TRANC3ak47 just goes to show how the top players don't play like that. That might of happened 15 years ago but it's outdated.
