The Winmau World Masters 1984 was again a prey for Eric Bristow. In the final he took revenge for the defeat in the Embassy final of 1983. This time Keith Deller was beaten.
Australian Terry O'Dea reached the quarterfinals and was the best non-Brit. The Norwegian Svein Arne Hjelmeland had the biggest surprise in store. He defeated 1983 finalist Mike Gregory in the last 32.
