# Qatar World Cup 10-Ball Results: Filler, Manas Into Semi-Finals

*Fifth seed Joshua Filler is the last seed standing and Albert James Manas the last Filipino as the Qatar World Cup 10-Ball cut its field to four in Doha.*

Four men are left standing at the Qatar World Cup 10-Ball — and only one of them carries a seeding. Fifth seed Joshua Filler beat Miguel Salvilla 11-7 on Wednesday afternoon in Doha to reach the semi-finals alongside world No. 1 Wojciech Szewczyk, 2024 champion Daniel Macioł and the Philippines' last hope, Albert James Manas.

Szewczyk ended John Morra's week 11-8, Macioł won the all-Polish tie 11-6 against Konrad Juszczyszyn, and Manas saw off giant-killer Hsieh Chia Chen 11-8 — the Taiwanese player's run ending one match after he had knocked out fourth seed Fedor Gorst.

*Results verified against the official QBSF live scoring via rack9pool.com at approximately 14:45 UTC on Wednesday, October 28 — cross-checked with Inside Spin. This is a snapshot of completed matches, not a live feed.*

## Quarter-final results

All four ties raced to 11 in a single 15:00 window in Doha — losers home with $8,000.

| Winner | Score | Loser |
|---|---|---|
| Wojciech Szewczyk | 11-8 | John Morra |
| Joshua Filler (5) | 11-7 | Miguel Salvilla |
| Daniel Macioł | 11-6 | Konrad Juszczyszyn |
| Albert James Manas | 11-8 | Hsieh Chia Chen |

## Filler is the last seed standing

A day that began with four ranked players in the last 16 ends with one. Filler, the No. 5 seed, is the only seed left after Magpantay, Biado and Gorst all fell before lunch. The German never trailed against Salvilla, closing out 11-7 to book a semi-final against the man who is playing the best pool in Doha — Szewczyk has now won 21 of his last 27 racks across three knockout rounds.

## Manas carries the flag alone

Seven Filipinos started the last 16; only Albert James Manas remains. His 11-8 win over Hsieh Chia Chen was arguably the tie of the round — Hsieh arrived having eliminated Gorst in the morning's only hill-hill finish, but Manas held his nerve to keep the host nation's biggest contingent alive into the final day. His reward: 2024 champion Daniel Macioł, who ended compatriot Konrad Juszczyszyn's giant-killing run 11-6 in the all-Polish quarter-final.

## Semi-finals set for Thursday

Both semi-finals go off together at 12:00 Doha on Thursday (09:00 UTC), races to 11 — table assignments per the QBSF scoring feed.

| Table | Match |
|---|---|
| 17 | Wojciech Szewczyk vs Joshua Filler (5) |
| 16 | Daniel Macioł vs Albert James Manas |

The final follows Thursday evening in Doha, raced to 13 and worth $100,000 to the champion.
