The 2013 UK Championship (officially the 2013 williamhill.com UK Championship) was a professional ranking snooker tournament that took place between 26 November–8 December 2013 at the Barbican Centre in York, England. It was the sixth ranking event of the 2013/2014 season.[1]

Mark Selby made the 100th official maximum break during his semi-final match against Ricky Walden. This was Selby's second official 147 break and the third maximum break in the 2013/2014 season.[2]

Neil Robertson won his ninth ranking title by defeating defending champion Selby 10–7 in the final,[3] despite trailing 1–5 and 3–6 during the match.[4] Robertson became the eighth player to win all Triple Crown events at least once,[5] and the first overseas player to achieve this feat.[6] Selby became the first defending champion to reach the final of the UK Championship since Mark Williams in 2000.[7]
