The Men’s Las Vegas Open takes place from February 18-23 at the Westgate Resort and Casino as the Predator Pro Billiard Series season gets underway with the biggest open event on the calendar.
Joshua Filler, Fedor Gorst and reigning world 10-ball champion Carlo Biado will be amongst the 128-player field for the prestigious $150,000 tournament, with the eventual champion receiving the increased $45,000 top prize.
Estonia’s Denis Grabe will act as the defending champion after overcoming Joshua Filler in last year’s final, while Wojciech Szewczyk returns to Sin City having become world 10-ball champion there four years ago.
Two-time champion Wiktor Zielinski and 2024 champion Lee Van Corteza return as former winners, while Greece’s Alex Kazakis, a quarter-finalist in both 2024 and 2025, competes as the WPA number one.
Other notable entrants include Shane van Boening, Albin Ouschan, David Alcaide, Daniel Maciol, Jayson Shaw and two-time World 10-Ball Championship runner-up Naoyuki Oi, as well as the likes of Marco Teutscher Max Lechner, Ralf Souquet, Vitaly Patsura, Skyler Woodward and Jefrey Roda.
A total of 33 nationalities will be represented in Las Vegas, which also includes Japan’s Hayato Hijikata, South Korea’s Ko Taeyong and Hojun Kwon and Gerson Martinez and Cristopher Tevez of Peru.
The Las Vegas 10-Ball Open is double elimination until 32 players remain and uses Predator’s unique format, with three sets of race-to-four being contested. Should the third set be level at 3-3, a shootout will determine who prevails.
An amendment to the Predator Pro Billiard Series for 2026 sees early shots on the 10 ball now become illegal. Players must sink the 10 ball when it is the lowest-numbered ball and with a proper call in order to win each rack, and the ball will be re-spotted should it be potted earlier.
Free coverage will be broadcast throughout the duration of the tournament via the Billiard TV websiteand Pro Billiard TV on YouTube.
