Tour stop number four of the J. Pechauer Custom Cues Southeast Open 9 Ball Tour was held at Capone's Billiards in Springhill, Florida, which hosted the J. Pechauer Hernando County Open this weekend as a $1000.00 added event. The event had a determined field of twenty-eight players, but it was Donnie Mills that dominated to take the first place distinction.
In the quarter finals, Tony Crosby progressed past Luc DePierne with a score of 9-4; the hot seat match consisted of Donnie Mills getting the best of Rich Orem (9-5); setting the semi-finals match between Rich Orem and Tony Crosby, where Rich ended up coming out on top 9-6. This ultimately solidified a re-match between Rich Orem and Donnie Mills in the finals, only to have Donnie end the match and the tournament with a win of 9-5.
In addition to the top eight finishers, the event paid the highest placed woman, Molly Oliver; seniors, Sam Staats and Dave Ross (split); and junior player Taz Naravane $50.00 for their efforts, and donated directly to the community with a contribution of $30.00 to a local non-profit charity in Hernando County.
