2022 British Open

The 2022 British Open (officially the 2022 Cazoo British Open) was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 26 September to 2 October 2022 at the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes, England. The third ranking tournament of the 2022–23 snooker season, it was organised by the World Snooker Tour and sponsored by car retailer Cazoo. Qualifying for the tournament took place from 9 to 14 August 2022 at the Robin Park Arena and Sports Centre in Wigan, although qualifiers featuring the top 16 players in the snooker world rankings were held over and played at the Marshall Arena. The event featured a total prize fund of £478,000, of which the winner received £100,000.

The draw was randomised after each round. All matches before the quarter-final stage were played as the best of seven frames, while the quarter-finals were best of nine frames, the semi-finals best of 11 frames, and the final best of 19 frames. Mark Williams was the defending champion, having defeated Gary Wilson 6–4 in the final of the 2021 event. Williams lost 1–4 to Ben Woollaston in the round of 64. Ryan Day won the tournament and the Clive Everton trophy, defeating Mark Allen 10–7 in the final to capture the fourth ranking title of his career. Day moved up from 27th to 16th place in the world rankings after his win, and secured a place in the following month's Champion of Champions invitational event. Mark Selby made the fourth maximum break of his career while playing Jack Lisowski in the round of 16. John Higgins made his 900th century break in professional competition in his round-of-64 match against Yuan Sijun, becoming the second player after Ronnie O'Sullivan to reach that milestone.
