Sherbini Versus Johnstone for Bottini PST Title, Streaming
from Tour Media

April 20, 2013 - Mohamed El Sherbini knocked top seed Stefano Galifi out of the PST Bottini Fuel World Open in semi-final action at Tuxedo Park, New York's LiveTechnology headquarters.
 
The young Egyptian was doing much of the work for most of the match. However, part way through game four Galifi looked tired and took extended breaks between points to catch his breath.
 
Sherbini began pushing the tempo of play, and it worked. He won both games four and five by a score of 11-8.
 
Sherbini will face Australian Wade Johnstone in the finals. Johnstone beat Fabian Kalaitzis 3-1 in the first semi-final of the night.

The match is scheduled to be streamed at 2pm EST Sunday at:
