The International Racquetball Federation's 21st Racquetball World Championships was held in San Luis Potosí, Mexico from August 20–27, 2022.[1] This was the first time the World Championships was held in Mexico since 2000, when it was also held in San Luis Potosí.
The 2022 World Championships used a best of five games match format with each game to 11 points, win by 2, with rally scoring, as used in other sports like squash and volleyball. Previously, racquetball games used side-out scoring, where players scored points only when they had won a rally which began with that player serving. Rallies won when not serving were simply side-outs: the rally losing player lost the serve and the rally winning player won the opportunity to serve, but did not win a point.
Mexicans Álvaro Beltrán and Daniel de la Rosa won the division for the second time together; the first was in 2018. It's Beltran's 5th Men's Doubles World Championship, winning the others with Javier Moreno. The Mexicans defeated Bolivians Roland Keller and Conrrado Moscoso in the final, 7–11, 12–14, 11–7, 11–5, 11–6.
The 2022 World Championships used a two-stage format to determine the World Champions. Initially, players competed in separate groups over three days. The results were used to seed players for the medal round.
