The 2019 Beverly World Cup was a professional non-ranking snooker tournament that took place from 24 to 30 June 2019 at the Wuxi City Sports Park Stadium in Wuxi, China. Hosted by the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA), it was the first event of the 2019–20 snooker season and the 16th edition of the World Cup. The event featured 16 teams of 2 players representing national teams.
The Chinese team of Liang Wenbo and Ding Junhui were the defending champions, having won the 2017 event defeating the English team of Barry Hawkins and Judd Trump 4–3 in the final. Ding and Liang were on different teams for the event, due to China having two sides as hosts. The China B team of Liang and Zhou Yuelong reached the final of the event, where they met the Scotland team of John Higgins and Stephen Maguire. Higgins and Maguire won the event winning the final 4–0. This was the first win in the World Cup for Scotland since the 1996 World Cup. Liang also had the highest break of the event, a 138 in the group stage match against Switzerland.
Tournament overview
Format
The 2019 World Cup was a professional snooker tournament for national pairs. The defending champions were the Chinese team of Liang Wenbo and Ding Junhui.[1] The tournament used the same format as that used in 2017 World Cup. The tournament consisted of 24 national teams, with two players competing for each side.[2] The World cup was split into a group stage and a knockout stage.[3] The 24 teams were split into four groups of six teams.[4] The group stages consisted of matches played as best-of-five-frames with four frames of singles, and a frame of doubles.[4] The top two teams from each group advanced to the Knockout Stages, the order being determined by total frames won.[4] If there is a tie in either of the first two places the following rules determine the positions:[4]
- If two teams are equal on frames won, the winner of the match between the two teams will be ranked higher.
- If three or more teams are tied, a sudden-death blue ball shoot-out will be played.
- Teams tied for position 3 to 6 would remain tied and share the prize money for those positions.
During the knockout stage, matches were played as best-of-seven-frames.[2] The knockout matches were scheduled as four singles matches and two doubles matches with the final frame being a singles match, with participants nominated by each team.[4]

Participants

Summary
Group stage
The group stages for the event was played from 24 to 28 June 2019. Group A featured defending champions Ding Junhui and Yan Bingtao representing China A,[8] who won four of their five matches. The pair lost one match to the Thailand team of Thepchaiya Un-Nooh and Noppon Saengkham.[9] The Chinese pair finished the group as the leaders, winning 19 of the 25 total frames. In second, the Thailand team had 15 frames won ahead of Norway and Poland with 11.[10][11] England won all four of five their matches in group B 3–2 to win the group with 17 frames.[11] In the final match of the group, Iran and Hong Kong met with the winner progressing. The Hong Kong pair of Andy Lee and Cheung Ka Wai won the match 3–2 to progress.[12][13]
Both the Belgian team of Luca Brecel and Ben Mertens and the Scottish team of John Higgins and Stephen Maguire were assured of progressing to the quarter-finals after winning their first four matches in group C.[11] In the dead rubber match, Belgium won 3–2 to top the group on head-to-head record.[12] They both finished eight points ahead of the Israeli team in third.[10] In group D, the Welsh team of Mark Williams and Ryan Day won the most frames of any team during the group stage, completing a whitewash over Switzerland and dropping a single frame in the other four matches.[10] They qualified ahead of China B who completed three whitewashes of their own.[10][13]
Knockout stage
The quarter-finals of the tournament were held 29 June, as the first to four frames.[14] The China A team won their match with Hong Kong 4–0, whilst China B defeated Belgium 4–2.[15][16] Scotland made an early 3–1 lead over Wales, but Williams won frame five and Wales won a Шаблон:Cuegloss frame to force a Шаблон:Cuegloss.[17] Maguire won the frame with a break of 59 over Day.[17] England and Thailand also went to a deciding frame, despite Noppon Saengkham missing Шаблон:Cuegloss in the sixth to win the match, with Wilson then getting a Шаблон:Cuegloss.[17] In the decider, Jack Lisowski beat Thepchaiya Un-Nooh to win the match 4–3.[17]
The semi-finals and final were both played on 30 June.[14] Defending champions China A were defeated by Scotland 1–4, whilst the China B side defeated England on a deciding frame 4–3. The final was played between Maguire and Higgins representing Scotland and Zhou Yuelong and Liang Wenbo representing China B and was refereed by Jan Scheers.[14] The Scotland team took the match by winning the first four frames, with neither team making a break of above 50.[18] This was Scotland's first win at the event since the 1996 World Cup also won by Higgins alongside Stephen Hendry and Alan McManus.[18] After the final, Maguire commented that he had "never felt nerves like that in any professional match" due to representing a team rather as a singles competitor.[18][19]
