The three- cushion world cup 1994/1 was the 6th and last world cup tournament in the eighth year of the three-cushion world cup. It took place from 6 to 9 January 1994 in this discipline of carom billiards in Ghent , Belgium . The three-cushion World Cup was still part of the 1993 tournament series.

history

In the last World Cup tournament in 1993, which was not held until the beginning of January 1994 for scheduling reasons, the points to be awarded were again increased by 50%. Had that not been the case, Torbjörn Blomdahl would have won the overall World Cup for the fourth time. But with his opening defeat against his Dutch club mate Raimond Burgman and the victory of Raymond Ceulemans against the young Spanish star Daniel Sánchez , the Belgian was now the big favorite for the title. But Ceulemans lost to his young compatriot Frédéric Caudron in the quarterfinals and now had to hope that Sang Chun Lee would not win the tournament. But the native Korean, who lives in New York, showed his class and won the overall World Cup in 1993 with his fourth World Cup victory.

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.
