Who is Junichi Komori?

Junichi Komori is a Japanese three-cushion billiards player.

Komori has won 4 Japanese titles. However, he never won an individual world title, finishing in third position at the UMB World Three-cushion Championship on three occasions, in 1976, 1978 and 1985. Along with Nobuaki Kobayashi he won the world team championship three times, in 1981, 1985 and 1992.

In 1993, he set a world record by achieving a high run of 28, breaking the previous record of 25 set by Willie Hoppe. His run of 28 is still an official world record, even though it was equalled three times: by Raymond Ceulemans in 1997, by Roland Forthomme in 2012, and by Frédéric Caudron in 2013.

His best game average dates back to 1976: 50 points in 15 innings.
