Many people ask me what it feels like to be a seven-time world champion at such a young age. Well, it feels great, but there are also many hours of hard work that go with it! The work that The Foundation and other organizations like it accomplish is no less. If they ever need me to help again, they only have to ask.
It gives us the greatest pleasure to have items pledged by India’s youngest world champion, Pankaj Advani who, astonishingly, won his first world title at 18 and now at 25 has seven world titles in Billiards and Snooker under his belt. (He’s also the only Asian to win world titles in Snooker and
Billiards). On auction is the World Billiards Championship medal Pankaj won in Singapore, 2007. It’s a prized possession for the Advani family – his mother spent her childhood there but couldn’t make this trip. Before leaving, Pankaj said, “Don’t worry Mom. I’ll bring a bit of Singapore back for you.” He kept his word. The reigning Asian Games champion’s cue on auction is very special too - it was the cue he won innumerable state and national titles and made his international debut with, aged 15. |
