Countdown Online Masters 2009
The Countdown Online Masters 2009 was an online tournament organised by Ben Wilson which ran from March-May 2009. 16 of the best players from recent years were invited to the tournament as well as some "wildcards" from the wider Countdown online community. For the first time, all the games were played on Apterous. The tournament was won by the 2008 winner Paul Howe.

These were Charlie Reams, Junaid Mubeen, Kirk Bevins, Jon Corby, Jon O'Neill, Steven Briers, Nick Wainwright, Mark Tournoff, and the 2008 winner Paul Howe.
