  • Il campionato mondiale di snooker 1996 venne disputato dal 20 aprile al 6 maggio 1996 presso il Crucible Theatre di Sheffield nel Regno Unito. Stephen Hendry si aggiudicò il suo sesto titolo sconfiggendo in finale 18-12 Peter Ebdon. Nell'incontro al primo turno tra Ronnie O'Sullivan e il canadese , Robidoux accusò O'Sullivan di non portargli il dovuto rispetto giocando con la mano sinistra per quasi tutto un frame e si rifiutò di stringergli la mano alla fine del match. O'Sullivan replicò a questo sostenendo che era migliore lui con la sua mano sinistra di quanto Robidoux lo fosse stato con la sua destra ("I'm better with my left hand than he was with his right"). O'Sullivan fu sottoposto a un'audizione disciplinare in risposta alla protesta formale di Robidoux, in seguito alla quale dovette provare di poter giocare ad alto livello con la sola mano sinistra. Giocò tre frame contro l'ex semifinalista mondiale Rex Williams vincendoli tutti e tre. L'accusa di aver portato la partita ad essere compromessa venne in seguito ritirata. Terry Griffiths vinse la partita al primo turno per la quattordicesima volta di seguito, dal 1983. Questa sequenza di vittorie successive al primo turno è tuttora un record. (it)
