The tournament took place from February 5th to 9th 1997 in this discipline of carom billiards in Salsomaggiore Terme in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna .

history
After Christian Rudolph's first German World Cup victory in Seoul , the German billiards continued their good performance with two medals in Salsomaggiore Terme, Italy. With second place, the freshly minted world champion Martin Horn secured his first podium in three cushion. In the final against Yilmaz Özcan from Turkey, Horn was already 13: 4 in the fifth set. Only two points were missing to win. But Özcan showed that he was the best player of the tournament. After four points, seven points followed in the next shot and the match was won 3-2 sets. Also Stefan Galla played very well again. He was only defeated in the semifinals by his friend Martin Horn with 0: 3 sets and finished third together with the young Dion Nelin.
The exact price money could not be determined from the documents.

From the main competition (1/16 final), all games are played on three sets of 15 points each. Third place has not been played since the 1996/97 season.
