Match Twelve
Joshua Filler & Moritz Neuhausen 5 – 2 Fedor Gorst & Skyler Woodward
Filler and Neuhausen reunited in doubles and delivered Europe’s opening point of the final day. USA started strong after Woodward escaped a safety and Neuhausen scratched, but Europe quickly settled and seized control.
A brilliant escape shot from Filler shifted momentum, and errors from the American team—including a missed 9-ball from Woodward and a scratch from Gorst—opened the door for Europe. Gorst’s late miss on the 3-ball sealed the result.

Match Thirteen
Pijus Labutis 5 – 3 Billy Thorpe
Labutis came out strong before Thorpe responded to level the match, but a scratch from the American gave Europe control once again. The Lithuanian capitalised with steady shotmaking to build a two-rack lead.
Thorpe punished a push-out to close the gap, but a failed safety on the 5-ball allowed Labutis to reach the hill. Thorpe stayed alive with a solid clearance, but Labutis closed with a composed break-and-run to claim his first Mosconi Cup singles victory.

Match Fourteen
Jayson Shaw & David Alcaide 5 – 2 Shane Van Boening & Tyler Styer
Team USA surged to a 2–0 lead after capitalising on a scratch from Alcaide, but Europe steadied quickly. Styer’s missed 5-ball and a foul from Van Boening allowed the Europeans to tie the match.
Another miss from Styer gifted Europe the lead, and Shaw delivered a sharp 5–9 carom to move them to the hill. A missed 3-ball from Van Boening in the next rack opened the final opportunity, and Shaw converted the winning 9-ball to secure Europe’s sixth consecutive Mosconi Cup title.
