VM i snooker 1990', Embassy World Snooker Championship, spelades i The Crucible Theatre i Sheffield, England, den 13–29 april 1990. Stephen Hendry vann sin första av sammanlagt sju VM-titlar under 1990-talet.
Händelser under turneringen
- Stephen Hendrys seger markerade det definitiva tronskiftet. Steve Davis hade dominerat 1980-talet, men fick nu abdikera till förmån för Hendry. Hendry hade redan vunnit såväl UK Championship som Masters, och fullbordade nu trippeln genom att även vinna VM.
- Hendry blev även den yngsta världsmästaren genom tiderna, 21 år gammal, ett rekord som fortfarande står sig.
- Detta blev det första världsmästerskapet sedan 1982 där inte Steve Davis var den ena finalisten.
- Alex Higgins, som gjorde comeback i VM efter att ha missat 1989 års turnering, blev utslagen i första omgången. Han drog uppmärksamhet till sig genom att sitta kvar i sin stol i arenan under hela tepausen efter fyra frames. Detta var dock inget jämfört med då han efter matchen oprovocerat boxade snookerförbundets presschef Colin Randle i magen, och följde upp detta med att uppföra sig mycket ohyfsat under presskonferensen som följde matchen [1]
