The 1994 British Open was a professional ranking snooker tournament, that was held from 30 March to 7 April 1994 at the Plymouth Pavilions, Plymouth, England.[4]
Ronnie O'Sullivan won the tournament by defeating James Wattana 9–4 in the final. The defending champion Steve Davis was defeated in the semi-final by Wattana.[5]
There were three notable factors in this year's tournament: There was no title sponsor, there was a new venue, and there was no TV coverage after 14 years of being shown on ITV.
