Reflecting on the success of the Vegas tournaments, PBS Events Manager Vincent Rochefort exclaimed:
“We’re thrilled to see the overwhelming support from fans around the globe, including the new people that we are introducing to the sport via Billiard TV and who are starting to follow the sport on our channel. The record-breaking numbers on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram are a testament to the passion and dedication of the billiards community, as well as to our ability to attract and engage new viewers. We’re grateful for their unwavering enthusiasm and look forward to delivering even more excitement in future PBS events”
Part of the Vegas tournaments’ remarkable viewership success can be credited to two new thrilling events. The PBS Women Showdown featured 16 top female players, showcasing their skill and competitiveness to an eager audience. Additionally, the introduction of the Apex Mixed Doubles event brought together 8 top pairs in an exciting new format, captivating viewers with dynamic matches. These additions injected fresh excitement into the tournaments, attracting a diverse audience and contributing to record-breaking viewership. More mixed doubles events to come this year!
The success of this event would not have been possible without the generous support of sponsors and partners, including Predator Group, Kamui, Yalin, Rums of Puerto Rico, Samsung TV Plus, Medalla Light, Cue Sports International, WPA, EPBF and Kozoom.
