2008 GB9 Scarborough Challenge Cup Winner Chris Robson presented with his cheque
by Simon Clarke from GB9 Tour sponsor White Horse Press Poole
Christopher Robson is Challenge Cup victor!
Chris Robson was the surprise winner at the GB9 Yorkshire Cup's Challenge Division event. Robson went into the final as the underdog to the more fancied Scott Higgins, but after a series of positional errors by his opponent duly punished by Robson, he was rewarded with the trophy for two day's of consistently high quality pool. More photos and results later.

The GB9 Tour, sponsored in it's inaugural year by Rileys Pool, Snooker and Poker Clubs, has drawn talent from the length and breadth of the country, who will be putting the final touches to their practice routines in readiness for what must be the toughest national tour in Europe.
The GB9 official match cloth is sponsored by Z9Billiard Cloth by Klaus Zobrekis, a new company with a new high tech cloth, designed after three years of intensive development, and aimed at the top end of the market for professional "worsted" pool/billiard cloth for American style tables.
