Allison Fisher was not the only winner to be crowned at the WPBA US Open in Tulsa, Oklahoma on June 6-10.
There was also a match to determine the WPBA Regional Tour Champion and even that was not the match that was expected. Eastern Champion My-Hahn Lac and Western Champion Kim Jones were both unable to make the trip to Oklahoma, so Eastern Runner up Megan Smith and Western Runner Up Liz Cole stepped up to face off for the coveted title.
The match saw WPBA veteran Megan Smith score a hard fought 9-6 win over Cole.
The tournament win capped off what has been a great season on the regional tour for Smith so far this year. "I have had a good year so far on tour, but to bring that National Title back to the East Coast meant a lot."
Smith added "I just wanted to thank the WPBA, JPNewt, Linda Shea, Sharon O'Hanlon for all their hard work, and of course JPechauer for all their support. Many thanks to David Hughes for his coaching expertise, and of course I'd like to recognize Mike Sigel for his invaluable contributions to my game."
