Billy Thorpe was ruled out of Mosconi Cup contention after missing three majors on the World Nineball Tour. Despite winning the event twice, Thorpe missed the March European Open, the May UK Open and the Arizona Open — all for financial reasons. The current rule allows only two missed majors before a player loses eligibility. Thorpe was informed shortly before a match at the U.S. Open and called the regulation one of the strangest he had seen in pool. Lukas Fracasso-Verner and Ronel Nalaunan were also affected. The structural tension is clear: American 9-ball does not offer club salaries or full travel support, so eligibility rules based on attendance create a bias toward wealthier players. If the criteria are not clarified, the Mosconi Cup team could soon reflect who can afford to travel, not who plays best.
