# British Open 1986

Die Dulux British Open 1986 waren ein Snooker-Turnier der Saison 1985/86, das vom 16. Februar bis 2. März in Derby in Mittelengland stattgefunden hat. Die dortigen Assembly Rooms waren seit 7 Jahren Austragungsort eines Profiturniers und beherbergten zum zweiten Mal die British Open, die ebenfalls zum zweiten Mal vom Wandfarbenproduzenten Dulux gesponsert wurden.
Für Silvino Francisco, den Sieger des Debütturniers im Vorjahr, kam das Aus bereits in Runde 2. Nach dem nicht-britischen Finale im Vorjahr machten diesmal zwei Engländer den Sieg unter sich aus. Der Führende der Weltrangliste Steve Davis wurde dabei seiner Favoritenrolle gerecht und bezwang Willie Thorne mit 12:7. Für Davis war es der vierte Sieg in dieser Saison.
