The 2024 German Masters (officially the 2024 BetVictor German Masters) was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 29 January to 4 February 2024 at the Tempodrom in Berlin, Germany. Qualifying for the tournament took place from 18 to 22 December 2023 at the Ponds Forge International Sports Centre in Sheffield, England. The 18th edition of the German Masters, first held in 1995 as the German Open, it was the twelfth ranking event of the 2023–24 season, following the World Grand Prix and preceding the Welsh Open. It was the seventh of eight events in the 2023–24 European Series. Organised by the World Snooker Tour and sponsored by BetVictor, the event was broadcast by Eurosport in Europe and by other broadcasters worldwide. The winner received the Brandon Parker Trophy[1] and £80,000 from a total prize fund of £427,000.
Ali Carter was the defending champion, having defeated Tom Ford 10–3 in the previous year's final,[2] but he lost 1–5 to Sam Craigie in the quarter-finals. Si Jiahui reached his first ranking event final, but Judd Trump defeated him 10–5 to win a record third German Masters title, the 27th ranking title of his career. It was Trump's fourth ranking title of the season, following his wins at the 2023 English Open, the 2023 Wuhan Open, and the 2023 Northern Ireland Open. He also secured the £150,000 European Series bonus for winning the most prize money in the series that season. It was the third time Trump had won the bonus, in the five seasons since it was introduced, having previously won it in the 2019–2020 and 2020–21 seasons.
The main stage of the tournament produced 46 century breaks, and the qualifying stage produced 30 centuries. Jordan Brown and Craigie shared the highest break prize, having both made 142 breaks, Brown in his qualifying match against Long Zehuang and Craigie in his last-64 match against Liam Pullen.
