THERE WAS A PACKED night of action in St Johann im Pongau as the 2023 Longoni 9 Ball League saw six matches take place and the destination of the 12 competing teams become a little clearer. There were two matches postponed from the opening night back in February with Germany and Norway competing twice tonight in order to catch up.
The format is scotch doubles with the matches a race to seven. The event is divided into four groups of three countries with the competing players the highest ranked pair on the Euro Tour rankings immediately prior to evening’s play.
In Group A, defending champions Poland ensured their passage into the semi-finals with a 7-2 victory over Austria. Wiktor Zielinski and Wojciech Szewczyk were ever-presents last year on their route to the title and with a win over Turkish North Cyprus in the opening round of matches, they can’t now be caught and make the last four for the second successive year.
