"I think in the future, we will organize more games like this to make Lhasa a more interesting place," he said.
He Zhiwei, president of the Tibet Billiards Association, said the region has 400 billiards clubs. Lhasa alone has more than 100, and some 5,000 people in the region are engaged in the billiards business.
"Even though the region does not have a professional snooker player, people are very enthusiastic about billiards," he said. "The regional government and the sports bureau also attach great importance to the development of the sport."
He added that more tournaments can be expected in the future.
