Singapore's top pool player Aloysius Yapp believes he has made a 'real breakthrough' after capturing his first senior international-level title in the United States on Saturday. He beat Roberto Gomez of the Philippines 4-0, 4-2 in the final of the CueSports International...

Before his Michigan Open win, the only senior title Yapp had claimed was the Golden Break 9-Ball Open in Malaysia in 2017, which featured mostly Asian players."I feel like I've broken a mental barrier, because I had never won a major final like this before. So I feel like I had a real breakthrough."

He added he felt he has"unlocked" another level to his game. He had shown"some glimpses" of his talent after he first rose to prominence in 2014, when he won the Junior World 9-Ball title, but never fully delivered on his potential until this US stint.
