The 2021 World Pool Championship was a pool tournament that took place between June 6 to 10, 2021 in the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes, England. Following the 2021 Championship League Pool and the 2021 World Cup of Pool it was the third event of the season to be held in Milton Keynes.
The reigning champion was Russian player Fedor Gorst, who defeated Chang Jung-Lin 13–11 in the 2019 final. This year, he lost in the round of 64 to Skyler Woodward 8–11.
The event was entered by 128 participants who were initially divided into 16 groups of 8 players, in which they competed against each other from June 6 to 7 in a double elimination tournament. Four players in each group qualified for the final round, which was played from June 8 to 10. The event was played under "winners break" format.[citation needed]
The early rounds were held behind closed doors, but fans were allowed for the final day.[1]
The event saw a total prize pool of $250,000, an increase of $100,000 from the previous edition. The winner's share was increased from $30,000 to $50,000.[citation needed]
