With the South African National Blackball title on the line, Kyle Akaloo took a deep breath and carefully plotted his next move. The 29-year-old, who is nicknamed Viper, knew exactly when to strike sinking the black in the deciding game with the score tied at six-all at the sport’s premier tournament held in Bloemfontein last week.
Akaloo’s victory over defending champion Aden Joseph handed him the national crown and sees him become the top ranked player in the country. “My name will forever be etched in history. It’s the greatest feeling ever,” said Akaloo, who hails from Malvern. “This literally means that I am the best pool player in South Africa, and no one can ever take that away from me. I am filled with pride to bring the title back to Durban.”
