The 2023 Shanghai Masters was a professional non-ranking snooker tournament that took place at the Shanghai Grand Stage in Shanghai, China from 11 to 17 September 2023. The 13th edition of the Shanghai Masters, first held in 2007, it was the first professional tournament played in mainland China since the 2019 World Open, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It featured 24 players, the top 16 players in the world rankings, as they stood after the 2023 Championship League, and eight invited Chinese players. The tournament was broadcast by local channels in China, Thailand, and Hong Kong, by Eurosport and Discovery+ in Europe, and by Matchroom Sport in all other territories. The winner received £210,000 from a total prize fund of £825,000.

After beating Ali Carter 6–3 in the last 16, John Higgins 6–5 in the quarter-finals, and Mark Selby 10–7 in the semi-finals, O'Sullivan defeated the reigning world champion Luca Brecel 11–9 in the final to win his fifth Shanghai Masters title, his fourth consecutively.
