About Alex Pagulayan
Alex Pagulayan’s greatest achievement is when he won the 2004 World Pool Championshipes held in Taiwan. After the heartbreak of falling at the final hurdle at Cardiff in 2003, Filipino-Canadian Alex Pagulayan went one better in July as he lifted the 2004 World Pool Championship after a superb battle with underdog Pei-wei Chang.
‘The Lion’ is a welcome addition to any pool tournament and his celebration dance after sinking the winning 9-ball in Taipei had to be seen to be believed!
As much a Filipino as a Canadian, Pagulayan spent the immediate aftermath of his victory soaking up his celebrity status in Manila with meetings with the President, chat shows and even a walk on part in a top-rated comedy show.
Having broken his ‘Majors’ duck, Pagulayan can now build on his success and establish himself as one of the modern greats – he certainly has the talent.
