Taiwan's Jung-lin Chang won the opening leg of the Guinness Asian 9-ball Tour.
In the final he beat Filipino Lee Vann Corteza 11-5 to claim the trophy and $15,000.
Defending champion Efren Reyes (Philippines) and several other stars are boycotting the Tour because San Miguel was dropped as tour sponsor.
