With just one spot up for grabs, the atmosphere in Nairobi was incredible.
And a clip of the semi-final clash between Patrick Ocheng and Peter Wachirui has now been seen over one million times.
As home favourite Wachirui hit a double 16 to checkout, the crowd erupted with people jumping for joy and one man hilariously lifted up a 180 sign.
Even the infamously noisy vuvuzela, best remembered from the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, was back as a supporter in the front row blew into it.

He also finished his first season in the World Series as the No1 ranked player.
He has joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.

And he's even the face of a brand new cereal.
But he is newly single after splitting from girlfriend Eloise Milburn following a 10-month relationship.
