Qualifying Event edit

Qualifying for the tournament was held on 17 September 1995 at the Masters Club in Glasgow after the late withdrawal of James Wattana from the main event due to personal reasons. Alan Burnett won the four-man playoff and earned the final spot for the event by defeating the 1992 Scottish Masters champion Neal Foulds and the 1995 World Championship semi-finalist Andy Hicks.[2][3] All matches were played to the best-of-nine frames and players in bold indicate match winners.[1]
