The IDF World Cup, which was sponsored by Winmau, attracted teams from over 24 countries and 280 individual players chasing World titles.
The Russian team success was all the more sweet, as this is the first time that the title has been won by a European team, which highlights the true global nature of the event.
Ian Flack, Sales and Marketing Director of Winmau, said "It was amazing to get involved with the IDF World Cup for this four day tournament in Shanghai. I can^t believe how popular the event is, how well it was run and how much press coverage there was. We are very proud to be sponsors of such a great event. Andy Fordham travelled over to play in the tournament for the first time, and he can testify to the quality of players on display."
