In snooker, Indian veteran Kamal Chawla has clinched his maiden IBSF World 6-Red title with a commanding 6-2 victory over Pakistan’s Asjad Iqbal in the final at Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. This triumph marks a significant turnaround for Chawla, who was the runner-up in the 2017 edition of the tournament.
India also won three more bronze medals through Malkeet Singh, Vidya Pillai, and Keerthana Pandian. In the women’s category, India’s Vidya was unable to defend her title, finishing with a bronze medal after a hard-fought semifinal loss to Hong Kong’s Ng On Yee, with the scoreline at 2-4.
