Snenthra babu

Shahbhaz Adil Khan: Defending champion Amee Kamani of Madhya Pradesh moved into the quarterfinals of the 15 Red women’s snooker on Tuesday, two days after regaining the women’s 6-Red snooker crown in the ongoing 90th National Billiards & Snooker Championships.

Amee beat Snenthra Babu of Tamil Nadu 2-0 (65-12, 55-44) in the pre-quarterfinals, as she set her eyes on repeating the treble – 6-Red snooker, 15-Red snooker and billiards in the same year – a feat she achieved in 2017.

Meanwhile, the experienced R Umadevi led a Karnataka trio that includes Vidya Pillai and last year’s runner-up Keerthana Pandian into the quarters, while Tamil Nadu’s Anupama Ramachandran and RT Mohita also advanced to the last-8 stage.
