The three- cushion world cup in 1988/2 was the second world cup tournament in the third year of the three-cushion world cup. It took place from 11 to 13 November 1988 in this discipline of carom billiards in Antwerp .

history

For the first time in the short history of the World Cup, two players from one country were in the final. In a great final, Nobuaki Kobayashi prevailed after a 2-2 set deficit after a big fight with 3-2 sets against his compatriot Jun'ichi Komori . Antwerp is a good tournament location for Kobayashi anyway. In 1974 he won his first world title against the seemingly unbeatable Raymond Ceulemans . The small final for third place was secured by world number one Torbjörn Blomdahl with a new general average record (GD) of 1.891 which was also a new world record. Another new world record was Kobayashi's best individual average (BED) with 2.812 . The fair audience gave both finalists a standing ovation and was followed by millions of television viewers worldwide in Europe, South America and Japan.
