Antoine Hachard wins Pro Series 28 after an impressive playoff. A easy 3-0 win over Hampus Nordberg were he didn’t let the Swede into the match. In the final he took revenge on Elias from the group stage were he lost 10-12 after having three match points.
A strange Pro Series as at is end after two players withdraw during the competition and a late call to Doyen to join the event, replacing Englishman Tom Jarvis in the last minute.
Simon Arvidsson was sick and had to leave a walk over after the first day and Koyo Konamitsu had problem with his shoulder and couldn play his placement match.
