In response to recent misinformation provided by the World Pool Association (WPA), Matchroom has confirmed that all World Nineball Tour (“WNT”) Matchroom Open and Invitational events, with the exception of the World Pool Championship, are sanctioned by the Pool Regulation Authority (“PRA”). The WPA incorrectly stated that certain WNT events are sanctioned by them and listed on their website, which is not accurate.
Matchroom acknowledges the confusion that may have arisen due to this misinformation and would like to clarify that only the World Pool Championship is sanctioned by the WPA, while all other WNT Matchroom events are sanctioned by the PRA. For accurate information regarding the sanctioning of WNT events, interested parties should refer to official communications and announcements from Matchroom.
It is important for everyone to understand the correct facts about the sanctioning of WNT events in order to avoid any further confusion or disputes. We encourage all interested parties to refer to official communications from Matchroom for accurate details regarding the sanctioning of these events.
