The 1974 Benson & Hedges British Open Championships was held at Abbeydale Park in Sheffield from 31 January - 8 February 1974.
The final was scratched and Geoff Hunt won his second title as Mo Yasin was unable to compete due to badly spraining his ankle during the semi-final: this was the first time the final could not be held since 1934.
As a consolation, the crowd was treated to an exhibition match between Hunt and Barrington.[1]
