Bryant takes two out of three versus Owen to capture Texas Open title

Bryant takes two out of three versus Owen to capture Texas Open title Charlie “Hillbilly” Bryant lost only a single match on his way to winning the Texas Open 9-Ball Tournament on Labor Day weekend, an event that stretched its way into sunrise on Tuesday morning, thanks, in part, to Bryant's exceedingly deliberate play at the tables throughout the tournament. The $3,200 Open event drew 116 entrants to Skinny Bob’s Billiards in Round Rock, TX. The concurrent, $800-added Ladies event drew 30 entrants and was won by Ming Ng. The matches were streamed under the auspices of Ray “Big Truck” Hansen’s PoolActionTV facilities, via Ustream.

The win also earned Bryant the title of Lone Star Tour’s 2009 Tour Champion, as he finished the season just ahead of Sylver Ochoa in total tour points.
