billiards

The Philippines has some of the greatest billiard players in the world. In fact, it is always in the top three among dozens of countries that compete annually. Efren "Bata" Reyes is considered the world's best in 8-ball, though he continually proves that he is an all-around player by winning some 9-ball world titles. Francisco "Django" Bustamante was also ranked #1 in the world in 1998, and is considered the one who has the "hardest smashing break" of all time.
