EUROPEAN OPEN 2026, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, March 10-15

Quarterfinals are all set.

He vs Szolnocki
Filler vs Soufi
Neuhausen vs Duong
Kaci vs Kaci

Seven of the last eight are Top 50 players in the world based on Fargo. The other, Soufi, has been a World 9ball runner-up. No easy draws left!

Of the eight left, only Eklent Kaci and Josh Filler have ever won a WNT major.

May the best man win!

I'm guessing that was posted right after Filler missed the 4-ball to a side pocket in Game 14. But his worst shot was in the next game, when he made an awful attempt at a straight-back bank on the 6-ball.

The cross-side bank of the 8ball, played two-ways, in Rack 15 from Filler was just brilliant!

He was looking like roadkill at 7-2 but had a great fight back. Filler was glued to his seat until he finally had to push out.
 
Wow, absolutely a stinker in the double hill rack of Neuhausen vs Duong, with multiple errors from both. It was Neuhausen limping over the finish line to reach the semis. He'll have to play better than this to beat Big Kaci tomorrow.

Worth noting that, despite a few racks that he gifted in this one, Duong has clearly reached a new level in his game. I see a lot of improvement in his overall shot selection and his safety play has reached a new level. Good chance he wins a WNT major this year,
 
I'm not sure there's a more likable guy in pro pool than Mario He. He'll have to play well to beat the always solid Szolnocki but it would be a nice story.

The games leading into the hill-hill weren’t much better.

think it will never happen. hope i'm wrong. mario more or less dominated the eurotour for a while. lately has won more playing poker than pool..
 
Tomorrow's semis:

E Kaci vs Neuhausen
Filler vs He/Szolnocki

Filler, though not breaking terribly well, brought his "A" game to crush Soufi 10-3.
