India's most successful cueist Pankaj Advani took his world-title count to 15 with a win over Zhua Xintong in the final of the IBSF World Snooker Championship in Hurghada on Saturday.

In the best-of-15 final, Advani took an early 5-2 lead in the first session and was strolling towards victory. However, Xintong started fighting back to pull it back to 7-6, giving Advani a scare. However, the veteran managed to keep his cool and win 8-6 at the end to add another successful title to his kitty.

2015 is turning out to be an amazing year for the 'Golden Boy' from Bengaluru – this is his second title after he clinched the IBSF Billiards Crown in September.
