UK Ace is First Ever Brit to Win Eurotour!

Congratulations to Imran Majid, who successfully fought his way through one of the toughest European Tournament draws ever seen to become the only Brit to have won an EPBF EuroTour Event - EVER!!!

An incredible 240 players from 33 countries made the trip to Montfalcone in Italy from all over Europe and Russia.

Over the years Majid has featured three times in EuroTour Semifinals, but added to his consistently good results, this win elevates him to 3rd on the EuroTour Ranking List - after Germany's Thomas Engert and Dutchman Nick van den Berg.

The UK's Daryl Peach exited the event at the Last 16 stage after a hill-hill battle with Poland's Karol Skowerski, and he current sits at 7th on the EuroTour Ranking List.

Good news too for fellow Brits Andy Worthington and Kevin Uzzell who slide into the crucial top 28 of the EuroTour Rankings (for automatic World Championship qualification) ranked 25th and 27th respectively.
