The three- cushion World Cup 1995/4 was the fourth UMB World Cup tournament in the tenth year of the three-cushion World Cup. The tournament took place from April 12 to 16, 1995 in this discipline of carom billiards in Porto, Portugal . It was the first three-cushion World Cup tournament in Portugal.

history

The World Cup tournament in Porto was excellently organized by the host in a beautiful tournament venue. Unfortunately the billiards were not optimally adjusted. Thus the billiard balls did not always run correctly. Christian Rudolph had to accept this shortcoming in a very exciting semi-final. The German, who was fourth in the overall World Cup, quickly led 2-1 sets against Daniel Sánchez . In the fourth set Rudolph had match point and already raised his hands to cheer. To his horror, the ball tipped past the collision in the last few centimeters. Sanchez used the resulting chance and made the sentence with three billiards. In the fifth set, Rudolph, who lives in Cologne, again led 11: 6 and was very unlucky. He narrowly missed several crashes. Sánchez was luckier. With a "fox" he earned a match ball, which he also used. He had reached the final with it. There was a big surprise in the second semi-final. The clearly favored Eddy Merckx lost against his compatriot Leon Smolders with 2: 3 sets. The fifth sentence ended with the tightest of all results. Smolders won by 15:14 in 18 shots. In the final he had no chance against Sánchez. It ended with a clear 3-0 for the Spaniard. With that he won his second World Cup tournament after Athens. For the three other Germans, the World Cup tournament was a disappointment. After qualifying, the tournament for Martin Horn was already over in the first round against Merckx. Johann Schirmbrand and Christian Zöllner were eliminated in the second round.

Before the last World Cup tournament in Hooglede, Belgium, Daniel Sánchez won the overall World Cup in 1995. The current status is:

  • Daniel Sánchez: 152 points
  • Jorge Theriaga: 112 points
  • Rini van Bracht: 106 points

The exact price money could not be determined from the documents.

Tournaments of the three-cushion world cup
The three-cushion World Cup was organized by the founding association, the " Billiards Worldcup Association " (BWA) until 1998 . Disputes between the BWA and the world association Union Mondiale de Billard (UMB) led to parallel tournaments between 1994 and 1997. The UMB / BWA organized the tournament together until the beginning of 1999. Since the dissolution of the BWA in 1999, the UMB has been the sole organizer.
From 1988-1991 the UMB did not host any world championships. During this time, the annual overall winner of the World Cup was crowned world champion.
