Efren Reyes

Everyone in the pool world knows the name Efren Reyes. I was reading an article from Untold Stories: Billiards History,about Efren not playing in the Derby City Classic this year. He is even thinking of retiring from pool. What a loss this would be to all of us in the pool world. Efren stated to the Manila Bulletin that his back was bothering him and he won't be playing in the Derby City Classic.
I don't know about you guys but the Billiard world without Efren would be the biggest loss in years. He still wins his share of Tournaments all over the world.
