Congratulations to Germany's Lino Burgold, the 2009 Pro Tour Rookie of the Year! Burgold passed Akimasa Yamamoto in the final event of the year to take home the title.

In addition to the title, the Rookie of the Year receives travel and accommodations to his or her choice of one of the next season’s Pro Tour events (for which that player has an invitation) or to the World Championships.
