Pankaj Advani turned in a scintillating display to win the ONGC-IBSF World Billiards Points Format Championship with a comprehensive six frames to one victory over veteran Geet Sethi in the final, in Bangalore, on Friday.

The 23-year-old Bangalore-based cueist delighted the home fans at the Karnataka State Billiards Association Hall while posting a 150-90, 151-0, 150-24, 150-0, 86-150, 150-72, 150-12 triumph.

After a below-par semi-final outing Thursday, against countryman Rupesh Shah, Advani was more focused against his more experienced opponent and swept the first four frames in the morning session to take a stronghold on the match.

Though the Sethi, who has eight World billiards crowns under his belt, won the first game of the next session later in the afternoon, he could not maintain the momentum and caved in to his younger opponent.

Advani late said the “bad” semi-final spurred him to come out firing and it paid off.

“In sport, every day is a new day,” he said after the match, which promised to be an “epic” encounter but ended up one-sided.

Sethi said the inclusion of billiards in the Asian Games inspired him to continue playing the game and expressed hope that it would figure in the Olympics [Images] as well.

“I am still going strong; I still enjoy the game,” he added.

Meanwhile, the ‘Time Format’ of the ONGC IBSF World Billiards Championship gets underway at the same venue on Saturday, with the final slated for September 10.

For decades, Hollywood’s fascination with scuba-diving was glamorized on silver screen in 007 flicks, The Abyss and Open Water. Now, you can get an international certificate in scuba-diving with Inland Training Center in Bangalore, a joint venture of Planet Scuba, a scuba diving school, and diving instructor Venkatesh Charloo.

The school at Indiranagar will offer PADI (Professional Association of Dive Instructions) open water diver and advanced open water diver certifications. “Bangalore is a great market for adventure sports. Surveys suggest residents here indulge in adventure sports more compared to other Indian cities. We’re expecting the bulk of our enrolments to come from young IT professionals,” said Madhava Reddy, founder director of Planet Scuba India.

The course includes three days of classroom lessons, two days in a swimming pool and two days at sea, breathing bubbles and taking photographs. Training includes simulatory exercises and personalized coaching in a swimming pool. The course is open to physically fit people above 10 years. You can scuba-dive anywhere in the world by showing the certificate.

The course is not just for professional scuba-diving, but also to spread awareness about the marine ecosystem, Reddy added.

Popular scuba-diving destinations around the world include the Great Barrier Reef in Heron or Vanuatu in Australia, Fiji Islands, Cayman Islands, Koh Tao Island in Thailand and Florida and Hawaii in the US. There has been a rise in Indian tourists to these destinations over the years.

Recreational scuba-diving today is like any other sport that requires specialized equipment and training, such as snow skiing, sailing, mountain climbing and horseback riding.
