Jack Halligan Australian Tour
(ph 0427 407 381)
Jack Halligan has virtually achieved everything possible in the sport of 8-Ball (Pool) – Australian Open Individual and Doubles Championships plus 13 State Titles are testimony to his outstanding skills as a cue-man.
Jack has also been captain of five Australian and ten State Teams and was a member of our victorious Australian team in our stunning victory against England in the final of the 1996 World Team Championship’s in Manchester.
Jack has traveled regularly to England to compete for Australia since 1993 and has produced some outstanding results. At the 1993 World Titles, Jack completed the week-long tournament with an amazing 88.89% winning average to win the “World Player of the Year” Award. This achievement is to this day, still, a World Championships record and is widely considered as a record most unlikely to ever be broken.
Winning this award was regarded as a once in a lifetime feat as the opposition players were the very finest from throughout the world. Amazingly however, after finishing 3rd at the 1994 Titles Jack again topped the averages (82%) in 1995 to win his second “World Player of the Year” title. On all three occasions Jack was selected in the “World All Stars” Team.
In 2000, Jack was awarded the “Australian 2000” Sports Medal, presented by the Prime Minister and Governor General, on behalf of the Queen for outstanding sporting achievement.
