Mosconi Cup BEST SHOT as USA star Tyler Styer stuns Europe with amazing pot
THE Mosconi Cup got underway at the Ally Pally on Tuesday night and USA’s Tyler Styer came up with the best shot of Day One.
The Mosconi Cup pits Team Europe against Team USA in a crunch Ryder Cup-style tournament on the baize.
The pool competition started on Tuesday and will run for four days as Team Europe seek to defend their title.
The hosts were already 2-0 up on the overall rankings when Styer faced Niels Feijen in the first singles clash of the night.
And the American played the shot of the night when he chipped the cueball over the 7 to pot the 1 and 2 balls.
Styer calmly walked over to his chair after the shot to sip a glass of water.
He then went on to win the frame and earn USA a commanding lead in the match.
Styer’s amazing effort eventually led to the American winning the match and chalking up the first point on the board for Team USA.
The Americans have not won the Mosconi Cup since 2009, with Team Europe dominating ever since.
