In the 2002 Asian Games in Busan, South Korea, billiards was treated as a sport, and included as an event. The Philippines won three gold medals at the games, one of which came from billiards.
My question is; why not make billiards an Olympic sport? Just go ahead and put billiards in the Olympics. The top players spend as much time honing their skills as other participants from other games. In many ways, it is like curling, which made its Olympic debut at the original Olympic Games in 1924.
Rather than playing on ice, billiards is a similar precision sport which is played on a table. Not much difference though.
