The GB9 Paul Medati Trophy
GB9 is Britain’s official professional 9 ball pool tour. The tour has quickly cemented itself as the toughest and most respected national pool tour in Europe with a line up of players other nations can only envy, such as the 2007 World Pool Champion - Daryl Peach; European Number 1 - Mark Gray, 2008 World 10 Ball Champion - Darren Appleton, London's finest - Imran Majid and Raj Hundal, and snooker legend Tony Drago to name but a few.
This was to be a very special GB9 event - renamed in commemoration of one of our own, Paul Medati, a well known and much liked face on the pro snooker circuit, he was swiftly taken from us by cancer last year, and during the weekend tour players raised £372 for MacMillan Cancer Support in recognition of the enormous difference they made to the quality of Paul's life and the support to the family during his final days.
Appropriately this tournament was hosted in one of our favourite and best equipped clubs, the third event of the season would also be crucial to players hoping to improve their ranking and possibly gain promotion to the elite player ranks for next season as these GB9 Tournaments have a three-tiered offering. An elite 32 player "Pro Cup", a 96 player "Challenge Cup", and a main event, "The Paul Medati Trophy" which pits all 128 players against each other, with a total prize fund exceeding £11,000.
These auspicious aspirations appear well justified as two new champions were crowned and a new record was achieved, along with some great gestures of sportsmanship.

Nine European Players In the Hunt
Europe, holder of the three WPA world championships, is in the thick of the battle for top honors in the Philippine Open, despite the surprise setback suffered by world No. 1 Ralf Souquet.
Still undefeated after two rounds of play are World 10-ball Champion Darren Appleton of the UK, Kelly Fisher of Ireland, Radislaw Babica of Poland, and Marcus Chamat of Sweden.
Darren Appleton beat Japanese Hayato Hijikata 9-6 in a live TV table match.
Marcus Chamat affirmed his top 10 world rating in beating Taiwanese Ko Po-Cheng, 9-5.
Babica continued to catch people's attention in hurdling Austrian Martin Kempter in a tight match, 9-7.
Fisher entered the third round Wednesday night when she beat Filipino Victor Arpilleda 9-7.
On the losers bracket, Germans Ralf Souquet and Thorsten Hohmann, Italian Fabio Petroni, Russian Ruslan Chinakov, and Austrian Martin Kempter remain in contention.
Europe’s biggest loss in Thursday’s action was Jasmin Ouschan of Austria who lost to Ernesto Dominguez of Mexico in a hill-hill thriller. The pretty Austrian missed a fairly easy shot at the 10-ball in the final rack.

Philippine Open to Start World Ranking Tour
It's all systems go for the first-ever Philippine Open Pool Championship which kicked off at SM Megamall, Megatrade Hall 2, on Wednesday, May 27, 2009, and the best of the best in the world will compete for top prizes and highly coveted places in the world rankings of the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA).
A total of $84,000 in total prize money and spots in the prestigious World Ten Ball Championship will be up for grabs in the tournament, which is the first event in the 2009 WPA World Ranking Tour.
Sixty-four of the finest players in the world, including the reigning World 10-ball champion and the world’s No.1 player, will see action in the competition which is being organized by Raya Sports in cooperation with the Billiards and Snooker Congress of the Philippines and Star Billiards, and sanctioned by the WPA.
Leading the foreign bets are Ralf Souquet of Germany and Darren Appleton of Great Britain. Souquet is currently ranked No. 1 by the WPA and is the reigning world 8-ball champion. Appleton, on the other hand, is the defending world 10-Ball titlist. He captured the crown last year in the event’s inaugural staging in Manila. The winner of the Philippine Open will get the top prize of $20,000. Prizes will be awarded up to 32nd place.

Europe's Largest Wheelchair Tour
The Wheelchair Tour accepts new players throughout the season on an adhoc basis - and you'll be matched against players of similar ability, so even if you know a wheelchair pool player who might like a fun pool weekend, get them to contact the tour now.
Each tour weekend features three events. The Pro Cup event - exclusively for the elite players, a Challenge Cup - for all the other players, and finally a Main Event which throws both divisions together. This two tiered approach gives players of all ability a really enjoyable weekend with a real chance of winning it big!
So there you have it... You don't have to be a World Class player, and there's no obligation to join the entire tour, but if you've been thinking about it but deferred before, you don't know what you're missing. Give it a go... I went to the last one and had a cracking time!

Matt Ford beats James Welch in Final at Southfields
39 players started at Southfields on Sunday, and after all the action from the Group Stages, and the Last 32 Single Elimination rounds, only two players remained... Local hero Matt Ford and the challenger from Chichester James Welch. Both players have had tough routes to the final, Welch only just managed to qualify as he finished third in his group, but then he played some of the best pool in his life to beat Phil Wildman 7:0 in the single elimination rounds.
In contrast, Ford finished top of his group, a group which included such pool luminaries as Andy Nicholson and the aforementioned Phil Wildman, and nothing could stop Matt in the final as Welch admitted he was drained, Ford steamrolled to an impressive 9:3 victory!

Black Bottle SAPPA Tour Event 1 runner-up Scott Ross starts
running another rack in his semi final with Clark Smith.
Alexander Takes First SAPPA Title
Arbroath’s Greg Alexander won the first event of the 2009/10 Black Bottle Whisky SAPPA Scottish 9-Ball Tour, which took place at Riley’s Stirling, with an enthralling 10-8 victory over Scott Ross. A total of 55 players came along to test their skills in the new format event, and with the top 16 players seeded straight through to the Sunday, 39 players turned up on Saturday to play for one of the 16 spaces in the draw on Sunday where they would play for the prize fund of over £2,100.
The new format also saw the introduction of the alternate break system to the SAPPA Tour. The introduction of alternate breaks caused a fair amount of discussion both on the SAPPA Forum and at the event itself with players on both sides being vocal about their support for one system against the other.
