The 2026 Jacksonville Invitational is officially in the books — and it was a good one.

Between Singles, the Team Challenge, and MiniManias, we paid out $8,600 in cash and put another $9,000+ in cues into players’ hands thanks to Cuetec and Bull Carbon.

Not a bad weekend.

Singles Champions

8-Ball
SL 2–3: Shelly Butler
SL 4–5: Lance McCrea
SL 6–7: Jesse Link

9-Ball
SL 1–3: Jon Carr
SL 4–5: Tony Self
SL 6–9: Logan Lane

Six brackets, six champions — each earning their title through strong fields and walking away with a Cuetec performance cue along with their share of the prize fund.

Team Challenge Champions
Steven Whitlow
Kendall Pereira
Tim Bradley
Dwayne Current
Ronnie Swopes

Five players. One draw. One team.

This group came together through the random draw format and ran it all the way to the title in our first-ever Invitational Team Challenge.

Exactly what this event was built for — new teammates, competitive matches, and a team figuring it out and getting it done in a close finish. Each player walks away with a Bull Carbon Breaker and their share of the cash.

MiniManias

We ran 9 MiniMania brackets, including two doubles divisions.

Minis gave all players a chance to get in on the action and added another layer to the weekend. We’re looking forward to growing them even more next year!

Appreciate everyone who showed up, competed, and made the weekend what it was.
This tournament is already a favorite, and the addition of the Team Challenge, a second sponsor, and MiniManias really set the tone for a full and fun weekend. 🥰

We’re excited about where this event is headed and look forward to raising the bar again in November.
