FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions
How many hours do you practice a day?
Mostly 3 – 4 hrs. a day
What cue do you use?
I just recently switched to a Custom Pechauer Cue. 12.4 Rogue Shaft.
What’s your favourite pool Game-8-Ball, 9-Ball, or 10-Ball?
8 ball because it makes you think more about the patterns you have to play and it’s a lot more thinking and then 9 ball because of the challenge of the cue ball control.
What’s the best shot you've ever made in a match?
There are so many. But one that sticks in my head is when I played Wei Wei and made a long bank on the 8 ball.
Do you get nervous before big games?
Yes, definitely. My heart starts racing and I have to remember to take deep breaths to calm myself down.
If you weren’t playing pool, what would you be doing instead?
I can’t really imagine what I would be doing instead. Probably hanging out with friends from school.
Who’s your favorite pool player of all time?
Allison Fisher because she’s very precise, nice, and confident. She handles herself gracefully.
Do you have any lucky charms or pre-game rituals?
I have a little bunny that has Allison Fisher’s voice inside a recorder that when you squeeze it, Allison’s is giving me words of encouragement. I also listen to music.
What’s your biggest goal in pool right now?
To win a Women’s World Championship.
What advice would you give someone just starting to play pool?
Have fun. This game has a lot of ups and downs. Don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s just a game. But if you want to get better, practice, practice, practice. Anybody can get better if you study the game and practice until you get it. It won’t happen fast but it is always possible if you don’t quit.
