Tournament page with all information

Weekly High Run is an international three cushion tournament series in which the players have to solve predetermined positions. If the point is scored then the run will be played to the end. The runs scored by the players are compared with each other, the highest series scored counts before the next highest, etc.

1 tournament is played per scoring week, the overall ranking consists of 10 tournaments. 10 predetermined positions are played per tournament and can be called up at the MWS terminal. The positions for the 21st WHR come from the three cushion specialist books "Fascination", "Ducking Kisses" and "Big Points" by MWS coach Andreas Efler, whose specialist literature and training programs are available on demand at the system for all MWS users.
