Reporter: Luke Riches on behalf of the EPBF

CUE SPORTS INDUSTRY giants, Predator has assumed title sponsorship of the Women’s Euro Tour for the 2024 season. Henceforth, the tour will be known as the Predator Women’s Euro Tour and all stops on the 2024 calendar will be known as the Predator Women’s (Host Venue) Open.

The immediate benefits for Europe’s increasingly strong battery of female players will be additional added money – it will now total 4500 Euro at each event, as well as an additional event each season, bringing the total in line with the men’s tour with six tournaments. With the entry fee increased to 100 Euros and the added prize fund of 4500 Euros, there will be purses exceeding 8000 Euro for the first time in the history of the Women's Euro Tour.

Similarly, to the men’s tour, for 2024 and beyond, the Predator Women’s Euro Tour will be split between three 9 ball events and three 10 ball tournaments, the results of which will form the basis of the Women’s Euro Tour rankings.

Commented JP Parmentier, Sports Marketing Director, Predator Group, “We are thrilled to announce the Predator Group's return as the Title Sponsor of the Women's Euro Tour in 2024. Our commitment to women's sports aligns with our values of empowerment, excellence, and inclusivity in the world of billiards."

“Predator has done some amazing events to date and a major point is that they are fully committed to the women’s game, so I’m very excited for the future of the Predator Women’s Euro Tour,” he concluded.

With the Tour commencing next month, as well as the increased prize money, there are Tour ranking points on offer. With the Tour split between 9-ball and 10-ball, players compete in a double-elimination format and then single elimination until the conclusion. All matches are races to 7 racks with alternate break.
