Team Europe assert dominance
Team Europe beat USA 11-6 to win the Mosconi Cup for a fifth title on the bounce in Florida last night.
The Americans will be licking their wounds but are sure to turn up in 2025 more determined than ever to break the rut.
We'll be there to bring you minute-by-minute coverage so make sure you tune in next year!
Battle of the skippers led way
As Woodward faced Shaw in the first singles match of the evening, you knew this result would effect everything.
Jayson Shaw won with a whitewash victory to get his team pumped for securing the 2024 Mosconi Cup.
Shaw was simply unplayable tonight.
Europe win Pacific conflict
It is never easy to win the Mosconi Cup, even more so when you are on enemy territory.
Despite this, Team Europe have had a convincing win in America to continue their recent domination of the trophy.
There will be some sore heads in the morning.
Americans with bitter taste of defeat
This trophy means a lot to both teams and losing it can be the bitterest pill to swallow:
The score doesn't reflect how close it was. The break was everything. I ain't mad, they still played good. I'm proud of my players. I've enjoyed every moment and will relish this moment forever.
Skyler WoodwardEurope seal momentous win
This one will long live in the memory for these players and fans.
Team Europe showed their grit this evening, ensuring they got over the line with no complications.
Now they can enjoy this victory and celebrate long into the night.
Shaw the MVP
Jayson Shaw has been voted the ‘most valued player’ award in the 2024 Mosconi Cup.
Team Europe’s captain leadership and form out on the table led by example.
He challenged the American crowd and blossomed under the pressure of the big occasion.
Emotions run high in Colorado
Team Europe's new captain speaks about scooping the trophy at his first time of asking:
I just to say thank you to everyone who came and watched. It has been stressful. It has been a lot more work this year. We worked on a late of things before this. It was a pleasure to have them in my team and I cannot wait for the next one.
Jayson ShawCrowd work crucial to victory
Jayson Shaw knew what to expect from the feisty home crowd.
It almost seemed he had briefed his team on how they were going to cope with the atmosphere.
Shaw took it to the fans, goading them back and playing the pantomime villain to take the strain off his players.
And boy did it work, everything went according to plan.
Fighting until the end
Credit where it is due, Team USA did not down tools once Team Europe made it to the bank.
They tried to throw everything at them and when Fedor Gorst won his match, America had slightest of glimmers of hope.
FSR soon put pay to that as he beat the Team USA skipper to ensure the Mosconi Cup remains in European hands.

Mosconi Cup 2024 format
The respective captains of Team Europe and Team USA will select five players to compete in the tournament.
Day one of the Mosconi Cup will consist of two doubles matches and one singles match, while days two and three have two doubles and three singles.
Should the final day be required, five matches of singles will be played to decide the winner.
All matches are played as best of nine frames.
But in a slight twist to the usual rules, captains will not only lead their teams, but also compete on the table themselves – this has not happened since 2004.
