The Return of the Cyclop Scottish 9 Ball Tour - Event 2
Saturday 7th April sees the return of the Cyclop Scottish 9 Ball Tour. Following on from the success of the first event in January – where Scott Gillespie was the deserving winner – event 2 is likely to be even tougher. The tour moves west this time and will be held in Glasgow. A tough 64-man field is in place and the event is already full, with dozens on the reserve list waiting to snap up the places of any last-minute pull-outs. Scott will be amongst the favourites again, but will have some of the other top players in Scottish pool to contend with: Pat Holtz, Scott Ross, Ryan Davie, and Marc and Ryan Fleming.
The Tour will have five events, as well as a Grand Final held in October. The ranking points accumulated at these events will be used to determine the draw of final, as well as used to form the teams of what is likely to be a keenly contested East/West team event to be held in December.
The event will be screened free over Facebook by Stephen Tosh and his team at Premier Event Streaming. If you haven’t already done so, give them a follow. They are becoming the best in the business at covering pool events on an almost weekly basis and did a fantastic job at last weekend’s West of Scotland Blackball tour.

Van Boening grabs US Open One Pocket title
Report by Mary Coffman - CueSports International
Shane Van Boening captured another US Open title, making an undefeated run to win the US Open One Pocket Championship on Sunday in Las Vegas.
The US Open One Pocket Championship started Mar. 23-25 at Griff’s in Las Vegas. CueSports International added $5,000 to the One Pocket Championship and $2,500 to the Bank Pool Championship, which Van Boening also won earlier in the week.
Van Boening swept through the 29-player field, giving up only three games during the entire tournament. His path included wins over: Jay Helfert, 4-0; Nick Beretanos, 4-1; Dee Adkins, 4-0; Ronnie Alcano, 4-0; before beating Oscar Dominguez, 4-1, to capture the hot seat.

Chris Melling - 2018 Chinese Pool World Championship Runner Up
Congratulations to the UK's Chris Melling for getting to the 2018 Chinese Pool World Championship Men's Final with an outstanding run of wins over many of China's top players.
In the final, after leading the first session by a massive 10-2 margin, the second session started well, but rack by rack with an almost imperceivable progress, China's Zheng Yubo clawed his way back until the score was level, and finally edged in front to take the title at the very last moment with a 21-19 score.
Before his ultimate match, Chris posted to his army of fans following on Facebook, "Well it’s time for the biggest match of my life and I’m 100% ready for it. Thanks once again for all the support. I’ll post when the match is over hopefully I’ll be the world champion again".
Well, he couldn't have been closer, and hopefully he will have another chance next year, but for now, we send commiserations to him from all the Pro9'ers watching the live stream, but in the words of Darren Appleton, "you did us proud!"

Van Boening pockets US Open Bank Pool Championship
Report by Mary Coffman - CueSports International
Shane Van Boening proved once again why he is the number one player in the U.S. as he went undefeated to win the US Open Bank Pool Championship.
The US Open Bank Pool Championship started Mar. 20 at Griff’s in Las Vegas, with a field of 20 players from across the country. It concluded Mar. 22.
Van Boening’s path to the finals included wins over: John Plunkett, 4-1; Tres Kane, 4-0; Ronnie Alcano, 4-0; Dee Adkins, 4-1. He then met Neal Jacobs of Chicago, Ill. for the hot seat match. Jacobs, an animated and aggressive player jumped out to an early 2-1 lead. But Van Boening played with patience to win the match by a score of 4-3 and send Jacobs to the loser’s bracket.
Jacobs scored wins over: Harry Platis, 4-0; Chris Lulek, 4-2; and Gary Lutman, 4-2, before losing the hot seat match to Van Boening.

Matchroom Multi Sport - A Major Announcement
Matchroom Multi Sport can announce that it has acquired full ownership of the US Open 9 Ball Championship in a ground-breaking move that is part of a long-term goal to take the event into the sports mainstream.
Barry Behrman had started the event in 1976 and had grown it over the decades into one of the most anticipated events in world pool and it now enters its 43rd year. Behrman passed away April 2016. His children continued the event in 2016 and 2017. Matchroom Chairman, Barry Hearn, recently signed an agreement with Behrman’s children, the heirs and executors of the Behrman estate.
Commented Barry Hearn, “This is momentous news for pool and is going to be a major boost for the sport and the industry. We’re not here to mess about and everything we’ve done in the world of pool is to the highest standard, with the best money, the best players, best TV production and huge global TV coverage, including North American TV. That is what we’re bringing to the Open.”

Main event
With Christmas and new year soon passing by, the event on the mind of all self-respecting pool players was soon upon us - the 2018 GB9 Midlands Classic! A healthy glut of new players assembled at the Park Inn by Radisson in
Telford, all hoping to get their hands on the Main Event trophy.
With brand new sponsorship for 2018 courtesy of Cyclop Balls and Andy Cloth, continued sponsorship by Rasson Billiards and McDermott Cues, a tweaked tournament format and fresh table layout, anticipation was at it’s very highest. The round one matches were soon underway, and the random draw threw up a clash of two titans on the TV table - The Magician Chris Melling and Dynamite Darren Appleton, back on the tour after dominating the international scene for a number of years. Melling was the favourite on paper, as Appleton has taken some leave of competition in recent months. The match itself panned out that way too - Appleton showing his class with some tough run-outs, but Melling looked that touch sharper. His kicking was also on form; the highlight being a slow one-railer to make a ball in the side pocket. 9-6 to Melling was a fair result. The Magician then faced a tough test in the face of Karl Boyes, who's GB9 record is phenomenal. 25 minutes and no mistakes later, Karl had despatched Chris to the one-loss side 9-2.
