Tkach comes from the one loss side to win the WPBA CueSpeed NAPA Invitational

It was unbelievable and yet . . . it happened. Kristina Tkach and Margarita Fefilova-Styer played twice during this past weekend’s (Oct. 10-13) WPBA CueSpeed NAPA Invitational at Railyard Billiards in Louisville, KY. Hot seat and finals. Although the two had not faced each other at the last WPBA event, the Olhausen Colorado Classic (Sept. 26-29), which Styer had won and Tkach had finished in the tie for 9^th, the two had ended that outing as the top two women in the WPBA’s rankings, Tkach ahead of Styer. Separated by a single, FargoRate point as they came into the event (Tkach on top, 733-732), expectations ran high as they approached each other from opposite ends of the bracket and won five straight to get into the hot seat match.

Tkach would lose the hot seat match and come back…
