2016 Racquetball World Championships – Men's doubles
The International Racquetball Federation's 18th Racquetball World Championships were held in Cali, Colombia, from July 15 to 23, 2016.[1] This was Colombia's first time hosting the tournament, and the first time it was held in South America since 1998, when Cochabamba, Bolivia, was host.
Mexicans Álvaro Beltrán and Javier Moreno won the men's doubles World Championship for the third time as a team, when the defeated Americans Jake Bredenbeck and Jose Diaz in the final, 15–12, 15–9.[2] Previously, the Mexicans had won in 2006 and 2012. Moreno also won the title in 2000 with Luis Bustilos. The Mexicans defeated the defending World Champions, Sebastian Franco and Alejandro Herrera of Colombia, in the semi-finals.
The 2016 World Championships was a two-stage competition. There was an initial group stage played as a round robin with the results used to seed teams for the medal round.[3]
