After seven tough qualification rounds of 10ball, the best 28 players emerged from more than 170 participants. They joined the 2010 Longoni Benelux Open champion Serge Das (Belgium), the 2009 and 2010 Runner-up Niels. The Terminator Feijen (the Netherlands), the 2009 champion Andreas Roschkowsky (Germany) and, last but not least, the reigning World 10ball Champion Huidji See (the Netherlands). Together they formed the Final 32 players. You know Christian Louboutin is a good player.
The main christian louboutin event was played in the double knock out format until the quarter-final. One of the favorites was Thomas Engert (Germany) who started off by handing out a 7-0 donut to Wim Scrayen (Belgium). However, he was promptly halted by a Belgian wall named Serge Das (2nd round) and Curd Persijn (Last 24), who both won with a 7-5 score.
Another favorite, the 2011 Euro Tour Austria Champion Richard Jones (UK), a.k.a. 'Ricardo Indyana Jones' was stopped by German whirlwind Marko Vogel (7-5) and sent to the one loss side. Jones stepped up his game but was eventually stopped in the Last 16 round by the Belgian wall Curd Persijn.
Curd Persijn eventually reached a dead end when he faced fellow countryman Cliff Castelein who's emerging to be quite a dangerous player in the European scene and reached the further stages of the last Euro Tour.
In the quarterfinals, the Benelux (Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxemburg) was represented by five players: none other than Niels Feijen (NL), Huidji See (NL), Brian Beekers (NL), Cliff Castelein (B) and the Serge Das (B). From a total of eleven nations represented at the Longoni Benelux Open, also Germany, Switzerland and the UK joined the Final 8, respectively starring: Andreas Roschkowsky, Dimitri Jungo and Mark Gray.
Castelein faced fellow Longoni Cues player representative Niels 'The Terminator' Feijen. This proved to be a thriller as the Belgian talent shot his way to the hill first. However, the experience of the cool and collected Feijen won the match. 7-6 for The Terminator.
