The Winmau World Masters Darts, a marquee Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) tournament, is set to get underway at Arena MK in Milton Keynes, England. The top 32 players will battle it out for a £500,000 prize pool, with the winner taking home £100,000.
The main draw begins with Luke Littler facing Mike De Decker in a first-round clash (best of five sets). “The Nuke” Littler is fresh off winning the PDC World Darts Championship, becoming only the fourth player to successfully defend the title. He also recently won the Saudi Arabia Darts Masters. He’ll surely be pumped up to put his quarter-final exit in 2025 behind him and add the Winmau World Masters trophy to his collection.
Michael van Gerwen enters as the tournament’s most successful player with five titles, while defending champion Luke Humphries opens his campaign against Dave Chisnall as he looks to retain the crown.
