The mind of Aleix Melià (Barcelona, 1996) doesn't rest. With his serious gaze, he's constantly making plans, whether he's playing or working. This Barcelona native is one of Europe's top players in snooker, the spectacular billiard discipline played on a much larger table than other disciplines like three-cushion billiards. "It looks easy, right?" he says as a novice learns the arts of this discipline. On a billiard table like those you find in many places, you can sink a ball at the far end of the table even if you're not an expert. In snooker, the distance is much greater and requires great skill.
