He said: "My game is absolutely back to where it should be now and that is really exciting heading into the back end of the season. It is a blockbuster match tomorrow [against Ding]. If you can't enjoy playing Ding in a semi-final in China then there's something wrong."

Semi-finals
The semi-finals were played on 23 March as the best of 11 frames. The first semi-final was played between Page, who had never progressed past the last-16 stage of a ranking tournament prior to the event, and Trump, who was playing his 61st career ranking semi-final. Before the match began, Page accidentally cut his finger while retrieving his cue from its case. He commented after the match: "I was praying for it not to bleed, but then it started bleeding. I tried putting a plaster on, but then I couldn't feel the cue so I had to take it off. It's not an ideal start in your first semi-final." Trump won the opening frame with a century break of 122, and Page levelled the match to 22. However, Trump won four frames in a row after the mid-session interval to claim a 62 victory and reach his seventh ranking final of the season. He said: "It was a scrappy game, neither of us played well, we both missed a lot of balls. It was Jackson's [Page's] first semi-final and he didn't really settle, my experience probably made the difference."



Ding and Neil Robertson contested the second semi-final. Robertson established a 31 advantage at the mid-session interval with a break of 118 in the fourth frame, but Ding claimed the next three frames to lead 43. Robertson regained the lead by winning frames eight and nine with breaks of 55 and 128. In the ninth frame, Robertson made a break of 36 before missing a red as he had to another ball, allowing Ding to even the match to 55 with a 68 break. Robertson had the first chance in the deciding frame, but had to when he lost  on the next red after potting the pink, scoring 53. Ding then narrowed his deficit to 4456, and capitalised on Robertson's safety error on the last red to secure a 65 victory on the last pink. Ding punched the table in celebration, as he had defeated Robertson for the first time since the 2014 China Open final, and reached the second ranking final of the season, after the 2023 UK Championship. Ding said: "I can't feel my legs, there was so much pressure on me. When I got the chance in the last frame, I thought I was going to win, but there was pressure on every shot. When I potted the pink I tried to enjoy the moment." The loss meant that Robertson's ranking has dropped out of the top 16, a position he had held since 2006. He also had to qualify for the World Championship for the first time since 2006. Robertson described the loss as "tough one to take", commenting on social media that he "played three brilliant frames [from 34 behind] but wasn't meant to be, just a centimetre out here or there on and couldn't get through."

Final


The final was a best-of-19-frames match, being played over two on 24 March, officiated by Zhu Ying, between Trump and Ding. Trump was playing in his 44th career ranking final and seventh in the season, and Ding the 23rd in his career and second in the season. Trump won the two closely contested opening frames of the first session to lead 20, with both players making multiple errors. Ding's shot in the third frame left a red to the middle pocket, allowing Trump to take the frame with a 88 break. Ding narrowed the score to 13 at the mid-session interval, but Trump won the next four frames, making breaks of 59, 79, and 78, to extend his lead to 71. Ding made the first century break of the match in the last frame of the session, a 106, to trail 27.

In the second session, Trump won the opening frame with a 130 break, and scored 35 in the 11th frame, but fouled when a red went into the pocket as the cue ball into the  after he potted the blue, and Ding took the frame with a break of 84. Trump closed to one frame from victory at 93 with a 106 break in the 12th frame, and Ding won frame 13 to narrow the score to 94 at the mid-session interval. When play resumed, Ding potted a difficult long red, but he missed the routine black in the following shot. Trump capitalised on the error to make a 58 break before missing a red to the, and Ding narrowed the score to 5258, helped by 16 foul points conceded by Trump from a on the last red. Ding went from an attempted long red, allowing Trump to capture the frame and match 104, winning his second World Open and successfully defending the title.

It was Trump's fifth ranking title of the season, following his three consecutive wins at the 2023 English Open, the 2023 Wuhan Open, and the 2023 Northern Ireland Open, in addition to the 2024 German Masters. The win marked Trump's third time winning five or more ranking events in a single season, having previously done so in the 2019–20 and the 2020–21 seasons. The only other players that have achieved the feat were Stephen Hendry in 1990–94, Ding in 2013–14, Selby in 2016–17, and Ronnie O'Sullivan in 2017–18. It was also Trump's 28th career ranking title, matching the tally of Steve Davis. Trump said after the match: "Ding had been playing really well this week so I thought it was going to be tough. I managed to dig in during the afternoon and get a good lead, then played my best stuff of the tournament tonight. I didn't want to give Ding the chance to start winning frames and let the crowd get behind him." He added: "As I have got older I have learned not to punish myself when I miss easy balls. So much of snooker is in the head, if you can be in the right space mentally then you have a big advantage. I am a lot more consistent in that respect these days."
