Mosconi Cup

Is anyone watching the Mosconi cup in Holland, its the nine ball pool equivelant of the Ryder Cup... only it lasts four days instead of three.

The matches are doubles and singles on day four.. with the first to reach 12 points winnig.

After day one the US is leading 2-1.

I just wandered if theres any interest in this in the US.

Is it on TV where you are ? I don't think it is here, although some of the sports channels do carry a lot of pool. I enjoy watching it & to answer your question, sure it's a sport... but I'm easy. I guess it's about time for another of the dreaded "Is it or isn't it a sport ?" threads.

I played Billiards for many years, nine-ball was always a favorite of mine . . . also played a tremendous amount of "Golf" on a Snooker Table with regulation sized pool balls. A lot of fun and a good "moneymaker". Sport? Game? We always thought of it as a game.

Who won in the end? I had to go on nightshift and forgot to check on the result.

Last I saw Davis and someone just lost there doubles to Robles and someone.

Next up was that mouthy character, forget his name now, bit of a legend.
