Predator Group mourns the passing of António Carrinho, the visionary behind Bilhares Carrinho and a defining figure of Portuguese cue sports.
For Karim Belhaj, António was a dear friend and mentor of more than 25 years. His wisdom, his generosity, his passion shaped not only the people around him, but the sport itself.
He gave his life to billiards, and billiards is richer for it. Portugal has lost one of its great figures. Our community has lost one of its own.
Our thoughts are with his wife, Mónica, their family, his colleagues in Anadia, Portugal, and all who shared his road.
His legacy endures through the company he built, the sport he shaped, and the many lives he touched.
Descanse em paz.
