The three- cushion world cup 1991/4 was the 4th world cup tournament in the sixth year of the three-cushion world cup. It took place from December 12 to 15, 1991 in this discipline of carom billiards in Seoul . It was the first three-cushion World Cup tournament in South Korea.

history

The first World Cup tournament in South Korea ended with many surprises. After the qualifying round, in which twelve players were able to qualify for the main tournament, there was only one unexpected result in the 1/16 final. The Japanese Jun'ichi Komori , who has been with the World Cup since the beginning, lost after a poor performance against the Korean Kim Yun-soo. The first sensation was the defeat in the round of 16 of the World Cup leader Torbjörn Blomdahl with a poor performance against the Japanese Yoshihiko Mano. The average performances in this tournament were rather poor for all players. Mano and Raymond Ceulemans fought until the final . The tournament was only decided in the fifth and decisive set. After a hard fight, Ceulemans finally won thanks to his great routine with 15:14 in 21 recordings. It will probably be the only result in World Cup history in which the winner of a final could win with less than one average. Nevertheless, Ceulemans would be enough to make it into the final at the last World Cup tournament of the year in Tokyo to defend the world championship.

The exact price money could not be determined from the documents. However, as in all BWA World Cup tournaments, it was at least 100,000 DM.
