On December 6, 2025, in front of 4,000 screaming fans at London's Alexandra Palace, two European rookies who had never played a single Mosconi match in their lives walked in and buried the United States so completely that the greatest American players of the century stood frozen while the trophy was lifted over their heads-for the SIXTH straight year. This is the book that captures the night American pool died. Inside these pages you'll witness: - How 25-year-old Moritz Neuhausen became the first German MVP in history and the rookie who broke Shane Van Boening's spirit The exact shots (including Jayson Shaw's legendary 5-9 carom) that ended the Cup in the very first match of the final day Rack-by-rack breakdowns, viral clips explained, and the crowd chaos that turned Ally Pally into a war zone If you're new to pool because a 15-second clip of a German kid celebrating blew up your feed-this is exactly where the obsession begins. This book will still be here-forever frozen in time-proving that on one December weekend in London, two kids and three veterans didn't just win a trophy. They ended an era.
