Alan McManus (born January 21, 1971) is a Scottish professional snooker player.
McManus has long been a consistently good player, but has never quite managed to achieve the very top flight. Ranked in the top 16 for the last ten years, his highest ranking was 6 (in 1993/94 and 1996/97). He has reached 21 professional finals, but won only four. He has reached the semi-finals of the world championship twice, but has never appeared in a final. The highlight of his career to date was claiming the Masters title at Wembley in 1994, by doing which he ended Stephen Hendry's remarkable unbeaten run in the tournament, which dated back to 1989.de:Alan McManus pl:Alan McManus
