# 2024 World Mixed Doubles (snooker)

The 2024 World Mixed Doubles was a non‑ranking professional mixed doubles snooker tournament that took place from 30 to 31 March 2024 at the Manchester Central in Manchester, England. Organised by the World Snooker Tour, it was the third staging of the tournament, following previous editions in 1991 and 2022. It featured a total prize fund of £140,000, of which the winners received £60,000 (£30,000 per player).
Four teams participated in the tournament: Neil Robertson and Mink Nutcharut, Mark Selby and Rebecca Kenna, Luca Brecel and Reanne Evans, and Judd Trump and Baipat Siripaporn. The tournament was played as a round‑robin with four‑frame matches, followed by a final between the top two teams, played as the best of seven frames.
Robertson and Nutcharut were the defending champions, having defeated Selby and Kenna 4‍–‍2 in the 2022 final, but they were eliminated at the round‑robin stage after two draws and a defeat. Brecel and Evans won the tournament with a 4‍–‍2 victory over Selby and Kenna in the final. Selby made the tournament's highest break of 90 during his and Kenna's round‑robin match with Brecel and Evans.

## Format

First held in Hamburg in 1991, the inaugural edition of the World Mixed Doubles was won by Steve Davis and Allison Fisher, who defeated Stephen Hendry and Stacey Hillyard 5‍–‍4 in the final. The event was reintroduced in 2022, featuring four teams, made up of the top four men from the snooker world rankings and the top four women from the World Women's Snooker rankings. The teams competed in a round‑robin tournament with matches consisting of four frames each. The top two teams from the round‑robin stage progressed to the final, which was contested as the best of seven frames. Instead of "scotch doubles" rules, in which teammates alternate shots, the event was played using alternate visits.
Neil Robertson and women's world number one Mink Nutcharut were the defending champions. The other teams were selected via a draw that took place on 23 February 2024. World number two Judd Trump was paired with Baipat Siripaporn, the 2023 World Women's Champion. Luca Brecel, the reigning World Champion, was paired with 12‑time World Women's Champion Reanne Evans. World number three Mark Allen was drawn alongside women's world number four Rebecca Kenna, but Allen withdrew for personal reasons and was replaced by world number five Mark Selby.
