Ocala, Fla. (March 25, 2017) \u2013 A new face emerged as the one to beat at Tour Stop 2 of the Tiger Florida Tour at Boulevard Billiards in Ocala. \u00a0Debbie McIntosh came from the one loss side to win this $500-added, modified double elimination format.\u00a0 Debbie is relatively new to the Tour and played only a few times last year.\u00a0 Most players are more familiar with her teenage daughter, Kayee, who also plays on the TFT and who is emerging as one of the top junior players in the country. Kaylee finished 5th-6th.<\/p>\n

Debbie McIntosh surprised many, winning over newcomer Gwen Sharpton (7-1), taking the hill-hill match from top TFT player Stephanie Mitchell, before losing on the hill to \u201cMike\u201d Fitzgerald. On the one-loss side, McIntosh challenged another top player, Michell Monk (5-2), earning her way back to the single elimination board. McIntosh drew Fitzgerald again, but this time McIntosh prevailed (7-5) to take on Nicolle Cuellar in the finals.<\/p>\n

Cuellar\u2019s path to the finals started by sending Margarita Makeeva to the one-loss side (7-2), followed by Cameron Cook (7-1), and then meeting Kaylee McIntosh in a lengthy double-hill match.\u00a0 Once on the single elimination board, Cuellar ended the day for Mitchell in another lengthy double hill match in the semi-finals.\u00a0 Cuellar\u2019s match in the finals with McIntosh wasn\u2019t easy, and a few mistakes cost Cuellar the win against McIntosh, who was playing lights out.<\/p>\n
