International Player of the Year
Luca Brecel
The Belgian sensation lifted the European Under 19 title at the tender age of 14. He scored an English double in the semis and final with wins over the highly-rated Jack Lisowski and Micahel Wasley.
Reanne Evans
Evans once again proved that she is the best in the women's game by defending the title she had won in Thailand twelve-months earlier. In Austria, she beat Belgium's Wendy Jans in the final.
Thepchaiya Un Nooh
Un-Nooh looks like the real deal. An attacking left-hander that looks to score at every opportunity. He beat Ireland's Colm Gilcreest in the final in Austria and topped the highest break chart with a 143. Look out for him on the World Snooker Tour in 09/10.
Darren Morgan
The former world number eight, regained his European Masters title with a win in Belgium. Morgan has become almost unbeatable in Over 40s in the past couple of years.
