Dương Quốc Hoàng advances to the final of the All Star Vietnam Invitational 2026

Billiards star Dương Quốc Hoàng demonstrated his elite level by overcoming Tạ Văn Linh in the semifinal round of the All Star Vietnam Invitational 2026.

Dương Quốc Hoàng (known as Hoàng Sao) secured a spot in the final of the All Star Vietnam Invitational 2026 after an overwhelming 11-4 victory over Tạ Văn Linh in the semifinal. The match saw Hoàng Sao at his peak performance, as he dominated the game almost entirely, consistently making an impact with solid defensive play, trademark shots, and several beautiful table maneuvers.

Throughout the match, Tạ Văn Linh struggled to find a way to counter his opponent's style and had few chances to make a difference. The score gap kept widening as Hoàng Sao maintained steady consistency. Ultimately, he concluded the game with a decisive 11-4 win, booking his place in the tournament's final match.

Dương Quốc Hoàng's current form reminds many of his dominant performance at PLP 2026. In a similar round-robin format, Hoàng Sao is showing a considerable edge over the rest of the field.

The All Star Vietnam Invitational 2026 billiards tournament takes place from May 13-17, featuring top Vietnamese players competing in the 10-ball discipline with a total prize pool of up to 425 million VND. The final is highly anticipated as Dương Quốc Hoàng aims for the championship title.

The other semifinal pair is a clash between Phạm Phương Nam and Bùi Trường An.
