Immonen and Cheng are last minute subs

WITH TWO last minute drop outs due to visa issues, Matchroom Sport can announce the final line-up of the 24th Dafabet World Pool Masters, which gets underway tomorrow Friday, February 17 concluding on Sunday.

Cheng Yu Hsuan aka Kevin Cheng (Chinese Taipei), the 2015 US Open Champion, steps in to replace Wu Jiaqing (China) while Hall of Famer Mika Immonen of Finland comes in for Lee Vann Corteza.

Taking place at the Victoria Stadium, Gibraltar, the Masters sees 16 top international players competing in the shadow of the Rock of Gibraltar to determine the destination of the $20,000 top prize.

For Immonen, it is a great chance to put a World Pool Masters victory on his resume after many attempts, the nearest being an 8-6 defeat to Alex Pagulayan in the championship match in Las Vegas in 2008.

“This is one title I haven’t managed to claim so I grabbed at the chance to travel last minute from New York to Gibraltar. I feel as if I’ve got nothing to lose and I’m really looking forward to facing Albin Ouschan on Friday night,” said Immonen.

Dafabet Sponsors World Pool Masters

DAFABET will be the title sponsors of the 24th World Pool Masters, which takes place from Friday, February 17 until Sunday, February 19 at Victoria Stadium, Gibraltar. 16 of the world’s best players will gather in the shadow of the famous Rock of Gibraltar to contest the Masters and determine the destination of the $20,000 top prize.

The Dafabet World Pool Masters XXIV will be broadcast live on Sky Sports in the UK & Ireland and on networks around the world.

Commented John Cruces, Head of Sports Marketing and Sponsorships at Dafabet: 'We're proud to be the title sponsors of this year's World Pool Masters, to add to our sponsorship of the Masters of Snooker.

A number of the very best players are competing which will ensure we get excellent worldwide brand coverage. We wish all the players the very best of luck in what we're sure will be a fantastic tournament'

Barry Hearn, Chairman of Matchroom Sport said, “We are delighted to have Dafabet on board as title sponsor of pool’s biggest invitational event. The field is packed with champions and with live TV coverage on Sky Sports and approaching 100 other countries across the globe, I know we are in for an exciting weekend in Gibraltar.”

Craig Marsh - 2017 IPA World Champion

First things first and each and every year the IPA World Professional Pool Championships are getting better and better. Last year the introduction of a betting partner in Coral took entries though the roof and this year we introduced a new Simonis cloth – grey instead of green (no longer the insulting “small snooker label thank you very much), harder working, easier to clean, and more importantly no nap and no roll offs so very very popular with the players.

The highest ever list of entries entry started off on Tuesday with five titles up for grabs (Open, Ladies, Seniors, Doubles, and Mixed Doubles), but by late Saturday afternoon the numbers had been pared down to just the four in the main event with 2016 runner-up Craig Marsh up against Ian Ali in the first semi final and Yannick Beaufils versus Simon Fitzsimmons in the other. Craig went through by a score line of 3-1 before a longer battle eventually saw Simon also win by three sets to one to go in to his first ever IPA World Final on Saturday evening.

Ruijsink is new Captain America    

JOHAN RUIJSINK, the authoritative Dutchman who led the European side undefeated through seven Mosconi Cups, makes a return to the competition after a two year absence as he takes the reins of Team USA in an attempt to revive America’s flagging fortunes in the transatlantic team event.

Ruijsink last captained the European side at Blackpool in 2014 when they ran out comfortable 11-5 winners over the USA. He promptly announced his retirement from an event that he had come to over-shadow after turning Europe from regular losers into the dominant Mosconi Cup force.

Following three barren years with Mark Wilson at the helm, it was felt that the Dutchman’s fantastic experience and his progressive methods in producing winners were ideally suited to get America competitive again.

Commented Ruijsink, “The reason to take on the job is quite obvious; I am an authentic lover of the game and especially of the Mosconi Cup. In 25 years of coaching, the Mosconi has proven to be by far the most exciting event in the world of pool.

2017 IPA World Championships - underway in Bradford

The end of January is upon us and that means the best cueists in the World of pool will descend on Yorkshire for the IPA World Pool Championships from the Bradford Hotel in Hall Ings at the end of January.

For those unfamiliar with the tournament, the IPA play to the IOC recognised Blackball rule set, the more attack minded fast flowing version that really encourages aggressive play from the break onwards, and makes for a more entertaining spectacle for the spectators both in the venue (free entry all week) and those watching on the HD live stream www.ipapool.com which is also free to air.

Leading bookmaker Coral continue to support the IPA and will be betting on the event as time allows with an overall market to be formed as soon as final entries are made (I am willing to bet that Marc Farnsworth heads the opening market), and they also hope to bet on individual matches that appear on the livestream on a daily basis, depending on their other sporting commitments. With a record entry of 176 for the Open and counting, as well as 36 for the Ladies and players from as far afield as Belgium, Norway, France, Hungary and even Iraq it truly is a genuine World Championship worthy of the name and if you can find the winners they seem sure to start at a rewarding price.
