This one-off event was held as a six-man round robin, similar to the Red Bull Super Challenge held earlier in the summer. The line-up was similar apart from John Higgins who replaced James Wattana and Au Chi-wai came in for Marco Fu. The group was won by Hendry.[2] Higgins made the highest break of the tournament, 127, in the fifth frame of his match against Hendry.[3]
