Chris Buckmaster fought his way through a substantial field of seasoned 9 ball players to take the winner's trophy and the £500 first prize on offer at the Solihull 9 Ball Open this weekend.

Runner-up Damian Massey proved to be a very worthy opponent and only one rack separated the two finalists as the score reached eight-all in the race-to-nine hill-hill thriller at Rileys Solihull club on Saturday.

Local favourite Craig Osborne takes Ipswich Masters 2008 title

2008 Ipswich Masters Results

The mention of a cup of tea with bacon sarnies for breakfast and a free buffet lunch, along with some top class 9-ball action was too inviting to miss, so at 6am on a Sunday morning I was in my car, driving through the pea-soup-thick fog on my three hour journey to the Ipswich Masters along with 36 other pool mad souls, plus their assorted friends and girlfriends.

I'm glad I did too... The club is a splendid, airy and light affair with a huge glass frontage and vast playing area. It seems like an age since I've seen everyone and it's been a fun day already.

PartyCasino.com MOSCONI CUP - Double J Grabs Last Spot

Matchroom Sport can announce that the final two spots on the American side for the forthcoming PartyCasino.com Mosconi Cup will be filled by South Carolina’s Earl Strickland and Jeremy Jones (Texas).

Both players line up in an American team that is hoping to win the Mosconi Cup outright for the first time since 2005. Taking place at the Hilton Hotel, Portomaso, St Julians, Malta from December 11 – 14, the event features two five-man teams playing a series of singles and doubles matches over four days.

Strickland, 47, is playing in his 13th consecutive Mosconi Cup, a record for the event, and has won a fantastic 37 points from 56 matches. ‘The Pearl’ insists that he will be back to his imperious best come December, having put the health issues that dogged him a few years ago very much behind him.

“I’m not just a pool player, I’m an athlete,” said an ebullient Strickland.

“I’m running four miles every morning and doing 500 sit ups a day and I’m practicing seven to eight hours a day.

“I’m a more intelligent player than most of these guys, I’m working hard and I think I’m close to being back to my very best.

“The Mosconi Cup is my kind of tournament and I’m looking forward to doing my best for the USA in Malta.”

Despite his well-documented bust-ups at the Mosconi Cup, Strickland’s record in the event is the best of the 61 players who have participated in the competition in its 14 year history.

"SILKY" PERFORMANCE TAKES SCOTTISH TITLE

Pat Holtz won the 2008 Carlsberg Scottish Open 9 Ball Championships with an enthralling 12 racks to 8 victory over Sunderland's Chris Cowie to take the £700 first prize at Styx American Pool Club in Kirkcaldy. A smaller than expected field turned up on the opening day of the event to test their skills but what was lost in quantity was more than made up for in quality of play.

As ever, the tournament was held in 2 parts. First was the Double Elimination phase of the event with the matches being races to 9 in the Winners' Bracket and races to 8 in the Losers' Bracket until 16 players remained - 8 in each bracket. These 16 players would then move on to the Single Elimination phase of the tournament that would give us our winner.
