The 2007 Euro-Asia Masters Challenge was a professional non-ranking team (also referred to as the Euro–Asia Team Challenge) and invitational snooker event that took place from 12 to 15 July 2007 at the Queen Elizabeth Stadium in Wan Chai, Hong Kong.[1]
The tournament was a revival of the two Euro-Asia Masters Challenge events played under the same name in 2003. The tournament's team event consists of two teams of four, the European team and the Asian team, playing in a single-frame, best-of-nine competition, with Team Europe defeating Team Asia with a score of 5–3.[1][2][3] The tournament's singles event featured eight players in two groups of four, with the top two in each group progressing to semi-finals. John Higgins defeated James Wattana 5–4 in the final to win the £25,000 prize.[2][4][5]
