MANILA, Philippines – Rubilen Amit is not done yet.

After winning her second title at the Yalin Women’s World 10 ball championship 2013 last month and leading Team Asia in bringing home the inaugural JBET.com Queens Cup a few days later, the Filipino cue artist also racked up a gold in the 27th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Myanmar Friday, December 20.

The two-time World 10 ball champion avenged the loss of fellow Filipino Iris Ranola to Indonesian Angeline Magdalena in the semis by defeating Magdalena in the 10 ball finals, 7-2.

Amit was dominating from the onset as she raced to a 6-1 lead. She eventually made good on a jump shot that paved the way for her to clean up the remaining balls on her way to securing the Philippines’ 26th gold in this year’s SEA Games.

Amit’s last minute gold medal addition improves the Philippines’ medal tally to 26 golds, 30 silvers and 34 bronze medals after the 10th day of the SEA Games, putting the country in 7th place. The SEA Games closes on December 22. – Rappler.com
