The 2022 Scottish Open (officially the 2022 BetVictor Scottish Open) was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 28 November to 4 December 2022 at Meadowbank Sports Centre in Edinburgh, Scotland, the first time since the 2003 event that the tournament was staged in that city. It was the sixth ranking event of the 2022–23 season and the second tournament in the Home Nations Series, following the Northern Ireland Open and preceding the English Open and the Welsh Open. It was the third of eight tournaments in the season's European Series. Qualifiers were held from 4 to 9 October at the Chase Leisure Centre in Cannock, England, although matches involving the top 16 players in the world rankings were held over and played at the main venue. Sponsored by BetVictor, the tournament was broadcast by Eurosport in the UK and Europe. The winner received £80,000 from a total prize fund of £427,000.
Luca Brecel was the defending champion, having defeated John Higgins 9–5 in the 2021 final. However, Brecel lost 3–4 to Fraser Patrick in the first round. World number 32 Gary Wilson reached his third ranking final, having previously been runner-up at the 2015 China Open and the 2021 British Open, while world number 55 Joe O'Connor reached a ranking final for the first time. Wilson won the last six frames of the final to clinch a 9–2 victory over O'Connor and capture the first ranking title of his career.
Judd Trump compiled the highest break of the tournament, making the eighth maximum break of his career in his second-round match against Mitchell Mann. In doing so, Trump became only the second player, after Shaun Murphy, to make three maximums in a calendar year, having previously achieved 147s at the 2022 Turkish Masters and the 2022 Champion of Champions.
During his first-round match against Bai Langning, world number one Ronnie O'Sullivan was believed to have set a new record for the fastest televised century break, with the time initially given as three minutes and 24 seconds. However, after reviewing the footage, tour officials added ten seconds to the time of O'Sullivan's break, putting it three seconds outside the record of three minutes and 31 seconds set by Tony Drago at the 1996 UK Championship.
