Despite winning 20 titles as a professional, including 11 ranking tournaments, the Northern Irishman has not yet taken home the greatest trophy in the industry.
On Tuesday, April 23, he will kick off his campaign for the 2024 title at Sheffield’s Crucible Theatre.
“I’ve won the UK Championship and the Masters, two other majors, but you turn pro to win the Worlds,” Allen stated.
“If I don’t take home a world title, I will find it disappointed. Above all, that is my ultimate goal.
When you’re a little child, your desire is to win a world championship and to be the last black person standing.
