[[Scotland]]'s 'Dream Team' with [[Stephen Hendry]], [[Alan McManus]] and [[John Higgins (snooker player)|John Higgins]] were strong favourites to win from the start and they did so by beating [[Republic of Ireland]] with [[Ken Doherty]], [[Fergal O'Brien]] and [[Stephen Murphy (snooker player)|Stephen Murphy]] to win their only World Cup.

Scotland's 'Dream Team' with Stephen Hendry, Alan McManus and John Higgins were strong favourites to win from the start and they did so by beating Republic of Ireland with Ken Doherty, Fergal O'Brien and Stephen Murphy to win their only World Cup. Higgins got the highest break of the tournament with a 139 in his semi-final match against Thailand's Tai Pichit.
