The Three-Cushion World Cup 2009/1 was the first of five tournaments of the 2009 season in the division carom and found from 19 to 25 January 2009 at "Congrescentrum 'Meulengat t" in Sluiskil in the Dutch province of Zeeland instead. It was the 24th World Cup in the Netherlands.

history

At 150, a new record for World Cup tournaments was set in Sluiskil. As in the previous year, the superior overall World Cup winner of the previous year Dick Jaspers failed very early. And again it was the Belgian Jozef Philipoom who threw the local hero out of the tournament. Philipoom played a very good tournament and reached the final by beating record World Cup winner Torbjörn Blomdahl in the semifinals. Here the opponent was his compatriot Frédéric Caudron . This left Philipoom with his smooth 3-0 set win but no chance of the title.
