BALI, INDONESIA — October 4, 2026 — The 2026 Bali round of the Predator Pro Billiard Series has reached its decisive stage, with one world champion already crowned and two major men’s finals now set for the final day of competition at the Bali International Convention Centre.
Across the KAMUI WPA Women’s 9-Ball World Championship, ISAK Billiard WPA Men’s Doubles 10-Ball World Championship, and ARAMITH Men’s Open, Bali has delivered world-class competition, dramatic comebacks and some of the sport’s biggest names battling for titles.
🏆 CHIEH-YU CHOU CROWNED WOMEN’S 9-BALL WORLD CHAMPION
Chinese Taipei’s Chieh-Yu Chou has been crowned the 2026 KAMUI WPA Women’s 9-Ball World Champion, defeating defending champion Seoa Seo of Korea 3–1 in the championship match.
Chou, the 2023 world champion, adds a second Women’s World 9-Ball crown to her career after overcoming one of the toughest challenges possible — the reigning champion herself.
Seo had entered the final with history within reach, looking to become the first woman since Liu Shasha in 2015 to successfully defend the title. Instead, Chou produced the performance required on the biggest stage to reclaim the world crown

🌍 MEN’S DOUBLES WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP — FINAL SET
The 2026 ISAK Billiard WPA Men’s Doubles 10-Ball World Championship has also reached its final, with Team Philippines 🇵🇭 taking on Team Spain 🇪🇸 for the world title.
The Philippines’ Carlo Biado and Albert James Manas survived a five-set semifinal battle against Indonesia, winning the deciding set 4–1 to secure a 3–2 overall victory.
Spain’s Francisco Sánchez-Ruiz and David Alcaide earned their place in the championship match by defeating defending finalists Poland 3–2, with the match decided in a dramatic shootout.
