Europe Seeks Sixth Consecutive Mosconi Cup Victory, Jayson Shaw Vows "Crush" Against USA.
Team Europe captain Jayson Shaw has vowed to "crush" Team USA in the upcoming Mosconi Cup at Alexandra Palace. This year's 10-day event will see the best nine-ball players from Europe and the United States compete against each other in a four-day battle for supremacy.
Shaw, who is seeking his third consecutive victory as captain, believes that his team has the skills and determination to outdo their American counterparts. He stated, "I don't think they will stop the rot. The same five last year got beat convincingly so I think we know what to do."
The Europeans have been dominating the Mosconi Cup since 2007, with an impressive record of winning 11 out of the last 12 matches. Their opponents, Team USA, have struggled to keep up with their European counterparts and have lost in three of their last five meetings.
Shaw's team boasts a strong lineup, including Joshua Filler, David Alcaide, Moritz Neuhausen, and Pijus Labutis. The Americans, on the other hand, will be led by World No 1 Fedor Gorst, Shane Van Boening, Tyler Styer, and Billy Thorpe.
The Mosconi Cup has a long history dating back to 1994, when it was first contested between Europe and the United States. Since then, the event has evolved into an annual tradition with four-day competitions. The format sees each side competing in singles, doubles, and team matches, with the teams consisting of five players.
The prize fund for the Mosconi Cup is substantial, with the winning team receiving $40,000 per player. The event will begin on Wednesday, December 3, at Alexandra Palace, and will continue until Saturday, December 6.
Sky Sports will be providing live coverage of every match, starting from 6:30 pm on the first day. The event can also be streamed with NOW and the Sky Sports app for customers who have access to these services.
As the Europeans look to extend their winning streak, they will need to bring their A-game to outdo the Americans. With Shaw's confidence and determination leading the way, it seems likely that Team Europe will emerge victorious once again.

but at the same time, can we say team usa is getting some decent players now? fedor gorst and shane van boening are definitely not slouches. still think europe has it in the bag tho 
I mean can you believe how dominated Europe has been in this tournament for years now? 
. But hey at least Jayson Shaw is hyped and all that 
. I'm not sure what the Americans are gonna do to stop them though... maybe they need a few new faces in their lineup? 
And $40,000 per player is insane 
, I mean who doesn't love free money? 
Anyways I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out 
.
can't see anyone beating them 
fedor gorst might be world no 1 but i think shaw's strategy will pay off 
I'm actually rooting for Jayson Shaw to bring home that win, but what's crazy is how much pressure he's under. He's been saying they'll "crush" the US team... does that mean they're gonna have some serious trash talk going on? 
i dont really get why they have to wear those fancy suits tho 
anyway i think europe has like 10x better players than usa its so unfair how team usa always loses 
i mean shaw is like the best captain ever 
! Jayson Shaw is totally right, his team has been crushing it lately 
. 11 out of 12 wins is insane, but I think Team USA can give them a run for their money 
! Can't wait to watch it all go down live on Sky Sports! 
anyway, gotta say i'm a bit skeptical about this prediction - what if team usa pulls off an upset? 
. The Europeans have been on fire since 2007 
It's always so intense when Europe takes on USA in pool (aka snooker... I think?). Jayson Shaw's got that "crush" vibe going on and if he delivers, we'll be looking at another European win 
. Those Europeans have been killing it since 2007 and I gotta give 'em props for their consistency. It's gonna be a close competition tho, Team USA has some heavy hitters like Fedor Gorst 
and pijus labutis is like a magician 
shaw's strategy is gonna pay off big time 
gotta watch out for fedor gorst tho 
. now a days jayson shaw seems so confident about winning but we will see what happens on dec 3 lol 
like remember when usa beat europe in 2018 and shocked everyone? 
anyway, gotta watch the match and see who comes out on top 
It's not going to be easy for Team USA though, they need to step up their game if they wanna take down the Europeans again 
.
.
. Can you imagine Joshua Filler's mind mapped out on a whiteboard, strategizing with Moritz Neuhausen 
? That's what I want to see! I'm rooting for Shaw and the Europeans to take home that $40k prize
