VAN BOENING, WOODWARD, CHUA, AND KRAUSE SECURE SEMI FINAL SPOTS FOR 2024 EUROPEAN OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP
Shane Van Boening, Skyler Woodward, Johann Chua, and Mickey Krause have advanced to the semi-finals of the 2024 European Open Championship in Fulda, Germany.
Now in its third year, the European Open Championship returns to Hotel Esperanto, in partnership with the City of Fulda, the local sports authority Fulda Die Sportstadt, and renowned broadcaster Sky Sports.
LIVE SCORES/BRACKETS
In a highly anticipated clash of former World Pool Champions, Shane Van Boening faced off against Francisco Sanchez Ruiz. Despite El Ferrari taking an early 3-1 lead, a critical error—an intentional foul attempt to tie the 2 and 3 balls—allowed Van Boening, to capitalise with an impressive eight-rack run, bringing him to the brink of victory. A missed 3-ball by Van Boening in the 13th rack offered Ruiz a glimmer of hope as he claimed two more racks.
However, Ruiz faltered with a missed 2-ball in the 15th rack, and despite a further opportunity after Van Boening missed the 6-ball, Ruiz’s own error in hooking himself on the 2-ball off the break ultimately sealed his fate, allowing the South Dakota Kid to step closer to his first European Open title.
In a dramatic comeback reminiscent of his earlier victory over Fedor Gorst, Skyler Woodward once again displayed his resilience against Daniel Maciol. The Polish cueist initially took the lead, with Woodward trailing 4-7. However, a dry break gave the Mosconi Cup captain the opportunity to claw back and eventually take the lead at 8-7.
The two players then traded racks, setting up a nail-biting hill-hill showdown. Maciol, breaking in the final rack, scratched off the 1-ball, allowing Woodward to clear the table and secure a hard-fought 10-9 victory, booking his place in the semi-finals.
Johan Chua delivered a commanding performance against Turkish cueist Mustafa Alnar, who, despite a strong run in the tournament, struggled to keep pace with the Filipino. Chua quickly established a three-rack lead, which only widened as the match progressed, culminating in a decisive 10-4 victory. This win secures Chua’s place in his second semi-final of the year, following his impressive run at the World Pool Championship.
Mickey Krause overcame a tough challenge from US Open champion Ko Ping Chung. Although Ko took the first rack, a dry break in the second rack allowed Krause to seize control, building a formidable six-rack lead. Ko attempted a comeback in the 11th rack after Krause miscued on the 6-ball, sparking a four-rack run. However, a missed 8-ball in the 16th rack halted Ko’s momentum, giving Krause the opportunity to close out the match and sail into the final day.

i'm awaiting bob or dave to judge.
in my pool hall it would be called foul because of how much it travelled forward.
either way sky needs to forgetaboutit..
i notice mickey krause has no sponsor patches. looks like a custom cue. karl needs to do a what's in your case..
5-0. sky needs to get his head straight
nice comeback.. 7-8
sky must be favorite now. 8-8
BNR by krause to lead 10-8
krause misses, sky makes a nice runout. 9-10
sky breaks wet, gets kicked to the bottom rail, long red.. missed
the out should be fairly simple for the win
and krause wins.
chua probably favorite now. krause missed a lot of balls, scratched a few times as well
