		+
		+	Bengaluru : Even after conquering billiards and snooker with 28 world titles, Pankaj Advani continues to find new ways to surprise — perhaps even himself. At 40, and in his first ever national pool championship in Ludhiana last week, the Bengaluru cueist scripted a debut for the ages, clinching both the 9-ball and 10-ball titles despite having virtually no competitive background in the format.
		+
		+	That this breakthrough has come so late in his career only adds to its intrigue. At a stage when most champions settle into legacy mode, Advani is still pushing boundaries. His maiden national pool triumph is not just another addition to an already overflowing trophy cabinet, but a testament to his rare ability to evolve and win across disciplines.
		+
		+	A self-confessed novice in the format, having played just two matches before the nationals, Advani rates the feat among his finest. “At the national level, this is right up there — one of my best in cue sports. I’ve never played competitive pool,” he told TOI.

 India’s Pankaj Advani won the 35th Men’s Asian Snooker Championship to complete a career grand slam in cue sports.
 With his triumph here, Advani conquered the ACBS Asian Snooker events — 6-red (short format) and 15-red (long format) — along with the IBSF World Championships in both formats too. Having already accomplished it in billiards, Advani had this elusive 15-red Asian Snooker title missing from his silverware collection. Advani defeated Thanawat Tirapongpaiboon 6-3 in the final to become the only one to win the Asian and World championships in all formats.
 “With this title, I’ve done everything I could when representing my country in both the sports. This win completes my trophy cabinet so I now know I will be sleeping well for a very long time.” Advani said.
 “Having won all that there is, I’d like to continue competing with the objective of deriving personal growth through the medium of sport and to also share my knowledge with budding cueists.”
