2016 UK OPEN

The GB 9 Ball Tour are excited to announce that this season we will be hosting the 2nd 9-Ball UK Open, an event that will carry ranking points towards selection of the 2016 European Mosconi Cup Team as well as a Guaranteed prize fund of €17,500 (£13,500) with the winner of the main event receiving €3,250 (£2,500).

The 2016 UK Open will be held between 22-24 July at the Park Inn by Radisson Hotel, Telford, UK, and will replace the GB9 Northern Masters planned for the same weekend.

All existing GB9 members will be eligible to play the UK Open for no additional entry fee. GB9 Pro division members who play the event will receive a £90 refund due to the fact that there will be no separate Pro event.

The event is fully open to non-members for an entry fee of €200 (£150) up to a maximum field of 128, on a first-come-first-served basis.

The GB9 committee would like to take this opportunity to thank Luke Riches at Matchroom Sport for allowing us to provide a world class event here in the UK with the prestige of being part of qualification for what many consider the best pool event on the calendar, The Mosconi Cup.
