Meanwhile, Nguyen Quoc Nguyen also defeated Christian Hernandez of Mexico in Group O 40-19 after 19 innings.
Today, Vietnam’s No 1 cueist Tran Quyet Chien will face Jacob Sorensen of the hosts in Group G.
The tournament has attracted the participation of 48 players from 22 countries divided into sixteen groups of three, of which the two best will go on.
It will end on November 30.
Tran Quyet Chien is still among top three cueists in the world after early exit from a recent world tournament.
Nearly 150 leading cueists from 17 countries and territories will battle it out for top honour in the 2019 Carom Billiard 3-Cushion World Cup, to be held at Nguyen Du Gymnasium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from May 20 to 26.
Tran Quyet Chien is number three in the world after winning the 3-cushion carom event at the Asian Carom Billiards Championship.
Vietnamese cueist Ma Minh Cam won the tenth Asian Carom Championship one cushion carom, which concluded at the Nguyen Du Gymnasium, Ho Chi Minh City on April 23.
Vietnam’s Tran Quyet Chien will face a former world champion in the semifinals of the Three-Cushion Billiards World Cup Sunday.
