Two weeks after being handed a lesson by snooker legends Jimmy White and Stephen Hendry, Hong Kong’s Ng On-yee returned to winning ways, regaining the IBSF women’s world 6 reds title in Hurghada, Egypt.

The Hong Kong star was unable to strike a blow against her older and much more experienced male counterparts in exhibition matches at the Hong Kong Masters last month.

But back against the girls, she was in a league of her own, defeating Siripaporn Nuanthakhamjan of Thailand 4-0 in the Egypt final

The 26-year-old Hong Kong ace and Siripaporn have been dominating the last five editions of the world 6 reds championship and it was Ng’s turn to lift the trophy having won it in 2013 and 2015.

“Siripaporn was the defending champion so I think there was a bit of pressure on her. I played well. I was confident coming into the final after winning my semi-finals against [Hong Kong’s] Wan Ka-kei.
