The Dynamic Billard Euro-Tour is having its next stop starting tomorrow. Around 140 players in the Open and 32 players in the Women’s event will come to Kyrenia, North Cyprus, to joust for prize money and valuable ranking points.
Thursday, June 2nd the Dynamic Billard North Cyprus Open Euro-Tour will begin with the first round matches to start at 09:00 local time and the final scheduled for Saturday, June 4th, 18:00. As in every Euro-Tour event, 34.000,- € prize money are at stake with 3.500,-€ going to the winner alone. A special feature in the setup here is the beautiful location of the venue, the Acapulco Hotel, Spa & Casino holiday resort. Located on the northern coast of sunny Cyprus, the weather is very much enjoyable during most time of the year. Players are currently pouring in from all over Europe and get ready for action but also enjoy the sunny beaches and pools of the Acapulco resort. Special attention in the field could be paid to players like Mika Immonen (FIN) and Jayson Shaw (SCO) who actually reside in the United States but are looking for ranking points in order to get a shot at Europe’s Mosconi Cup team.
On Saturday, June 4th at 09:00 local time the Women North Cyprus Open will commence. Female players only are allowed into this event and most of Europe’s top players have announced for it. Unfortunately, Austria’s Jasmin Ouschan had to cancel last minute but the remaining field holds the strongest names of European women’s pool. Especially the Eastern and Scandinavian countries are represented with a huge contingency. The final match of the women’s event is scheduled for 15:00 on Sunday afternoon.
On Sunday evening at 18:00, June 5th, the North Cyprus Challenge Cup will begin. Many local players will encounter several European top players for a tournament which holds the B-status of the EPBF. The tournament is divided into a men’s, women’s and youth section and holds a total prize fund of over 35.000,-€. The North Cyprus Challenge Cup will last until Wednesday, June 8th at 20:00 local time where the final will be played. More information can be found here http://www.northcypruscup.com
