Antonio takes the 4th place in Singapore

The Singapore Satellite, a tournament counting for the FISTF circuit, took place last week-end and 24 players were competing in a nice sports hall. Antonio Carabillo was the only foreign player taking part. Being 87th in the world ranking, Antonio was the top seed of the tournament. In the group stage, he easily beat Soh Wee Lik (2-1) and Mohd Rizal (2-0) to finish on top of the group. In the last 16 round, it was another victory against Mohd Azhar (3-0). In the quarter-final, Antonio was in great shape and beat Noor Haikal (5-0). Int he semi-final, it was something very different as Antonio lost to Den Mulia (3-0). Den Mulia is know as one of the best Singapore player, maybe the best player for the moment. Den Mulia later won the final against Rudy Hesty (2-0). In the final for the third place, Antonio lost to John Ho (0-2). Finishing in the top 4 of such a big tournament is still a great satisfaction for the best Hong Kong player.
