Men’s Final: Estonia vs. Spain Showdown

In a highly anticipated showdown, Dennis Grabe from Estonia will square off against Spain’s Francisco Sanchez Ruiz. This match sees Grabe aiming for his second PBS title of the year, having previously clinched the Kamui Las Vegas Open with a remarkable comeback victory. His journey to the final wasn’t easy; Grabe fought past Daniel Maciol from Poland, winning in a nerve-wracking shoot-out after their match ended in a tie. Sanchez Ruiz, on the other hand, battled through a tough game against Bader Al Awadhi from Kuwait, initially losing the first set before making a strong comeback to secure his place in the final.
