Manila Bulletin
|August 13 2025
Needing the fire to make an extra push in the 2025 World Games, Chezka Centeno answered the call for Team Philippines after she advanced to the semifinals of the women's 10-ball event at the Civil Aviation Flight University of China - Tianfu Campus Gymnasium on Tuesday, Aug. 12.
Armed with experience with her 2023 10-ball world title shining above all, the 26-year-old Centeno beat Spain's Mayte Ropero, 7-2, and will face Shasha Liu of China, the three-time 9-ball titlist, in the crucial round at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 13.
"I am confident because I have beaten Shasha several times before," Centeno said shortly after her match.
"I will do my best to advance to the finals and take home the gold medal."
