14,000 Euros on offer as Biel welcomes you to the 4th 9-Ball Grand Prix Open

After much trepidation and a lot of work and many meetings, it is now official. The 9-Ball Grand Prix 2009, thanks to the financial success of the city of Biel has been granted and implemented. So from Thursday 2nd until Saturday 4th April 2009 the qualifications will commence, and on Sunday 5th April matches will be played on the Final Stages table at Le Pavillon.

It was no easy task. The money issue is always at the forefront in the implementation of a tournament of this size and format. It was thanks to the help of the City of Biel in the last few seconds but eventually the green light was given for the 4th Edition of the 9-Ball Grand Prix Open 2009.

"Read More..." for the details.

The total prize money of 23,000 .- Swiss francs (14,000 euros) can be guaranteed and the first promises of world players have also already arrived in Biel. So this year the reigning World 9-Ball Champion, Daryl Peach, will be making the journey to Switzerland.

In a time when pool in Switzerland, is probably on a lower than normal standing (See General Tournament participant numbers), we hope in Biel / Bienne especially for your support. A tournament of this magnitude can only survive if the numbers are correct. We offer you again this year a world tournament of the highest class.
