The 2021 Shoot Out (officially the 2021 BetVictor Snooker Shoot Out) was a professional ranking snooker tournament, that took place from 4 to 7 February 2021 at the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes, England. It was the ninth ranking event of the 2020–21 snooker season. It was played under a variation of the standard rules of snooker. The event was the fourth of six events sponsored by BetVictor, making up the 2020-21 European Series.
Michael Holt was the defending champion, having defeated Zhou Yuelong 64–1 in the 2020 final. In 2021, Holt was defeated by Matthew Stevens in the second round.
Ryan Day won the tournament for his third career ranking title, defeating Mark Selby 67–24 in the final.
Tournament format
The tournament was played using a variation of the traditional snooker rules. The draw was randomised before each round. All matches were played over a single frame, each of which lasted up to 10 minutes. The event featured a variable shot clock; shots played in the first five minutes were allowed 15 seconds while the final five had a 10-second timer. All foul shots award the opponent a ball in hand. Unlike traditional snooker, if a ball does not hit a cushion on every shot, it is a foul. Rather than a coin toss, a lag is used to choose which player breaks. In the event of a draw, each player receives a shot at the blue ball this is known as a "blue ball shootout". The player who pots the ball with the cue ball from inside the D and the blue ball on its spot with the opponent missing wins the match. The event was broadcast by Eurosport.
