Judd Trump (born 20 August 1989) is an English professional snooker player who is a former world champion and a former world number one. He is in fourth place on the list of all-time ranking event winners, having won 31 ranking titles. He has won five Triple Crown events.

Trump turned professional in 2005, having reached the World Under-21 Championship semi-finals at age 14 the previous year. In 2011, after winning his maiden ranking title at the China Open, he was runner-up at the World Championship and captured his first Triple Crown title at the UK Championship. He finished runner-up at the 2014 UK Championship and completed his career Triple Crown in the 2018–19 season by winning both the Masters and the World Championship. In doing so, he became the first player to win over £1 million in prize money in a single season. He won six ranking events in the 2019–20 season, setting a new record for the most ranking titles earned in one season.

At the 2024 British Open, Trump made his 1,000th century break in professional competition, becoming the third player to reach this milestone, after Ronnie O'Sullivan and John Higgins. During the 2024–25 season, he won a total of £1,680,600 in prize money, setting a new record for the highest prize income in a single season. Known for his attacking style of play and break-building skills, he holds the record for the most century breaks achieved in one season, having made 107 in 2024–25, and has made nine maximum breaks in his career. He was inducted into the World Snooker Tour Hall of Fame in 2021 and has been awarded World Snooker's Player of the Year on four occasions. He was awarded an MBE in 2022 for services to snooker.
