In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady discusses a significant development in the world of sports with the inclusion of billiards in the South American Games. This historic milestone, announced by the World Pool Association, marks a new era for billiards, elevating it to international prominence and paving the way for future opportunities in major global sporting events. The inclusion is a testament to the dedication and perseverance of athletes, officials, coaches, and federations who have worked tirelessly to elevate billiards to the highest international platforms.
