Chang Jung-Lin of Chinese Taipei made a sweet comeback from a three-year absence by clinching¹ the crown at the Guinness 9-Ball Tour's Jakarta leg opener on Sunday.

Chang romped² to a convincing 11-5 victory over Lee Van Corteza of the Philippines in the final round, English daily The Jakarta Post reported Monday.

"I'm happy I won the leg because it's my maiden³ play after three years off competition," the 22-year-old was quoted as saying.

The win paid off his defeat to Filipino ace⁴ Francisco Bustamante in the Philippine leg's qualifying round in 2005.

Chang made a convincing 2-0 lead, extending it further to 10-5 with no chances for Van Corteza, the 2006 All Japan champion, who has been dubbed⁵ "Predator⁶".

During the final, Van Corteza, the 2005 SEA Games gold medalist, unintentionally touched another ball with the tip of his short sleeve while Chang still had a 7-4 lead. This incident prompted the referee⁷ to award the turn to Chang, who successfully took advantage of Corteza's unforced error.

In the last rack, Chang wrapped up the game with flair after he sent the 9 ball rolling nicely into the pocket in the chase of the 5 ball, to give him the winner's purse of 15,000 US dollars
