After last weekend’s first GB 9 Ball Tour win, Craig Osborne has conitnued his solid form. We feel very hard done by now if a British player does not make it into the last four and we are becoming so used to our star players winning Eurotour events.
Osborne is the player currently left flying the flag after having defeated Mateusz Sniegocki 9-7 in the quarter finals to get that first ever semi final spot in the Eurotour.
Although Osborne has been a solid player over the last couple of years and has also been to the World Championships, he has never been a ‘major’ performer. However, with the way he played last weekend in lifting the Southern Masters 9-ball title 2009 could well be his breakthrough year.
In the other quarter finals Marko Vogel beat Pedro Fonseca 9-8 and the other two matches are still being played. David Alcaide and Marcus Chamat (5-3 at time of writing) and on the TV table Dimitri Jungo leads Ralf Souquet 3-1.
