The AGIPI Billard Masters was a three-cushion tournament that was held in Schiltigheim in France.
The invitation tournament for the best three-cushion players in the world was held six times from 2008 to 2013. On October 5th, 2013 it was announced that the “father” and sponsor of the tournament, Claude Fath, resigned from his position as director of AGIPI. Since his successor is more fond of football than billiards, there will be no continuation of the three-cushion tournament, which is the most highly endowed after the Crystal Kelly Cup, from the 2013/14 season .
The games were broadcast live on the Eurosport 2 TV channel and on the Internet via Kozoom .
