The curtain’s only just come down on the PDC World Darts Championship but arrows fans don’t have long to wait for the next big tournament.
Premier League Darts was given a fresh lick of paint last year with a brand-spanking new format, and the 2023 tournament promises to hit the bullseye once again with the best throwers in the game set to battle it out over three months.
Michael van Gerwen is the defending champion after beating Joe Cullen 11–10 in last season’s final. The Dutchman will defend his crown as he attempts to win the competition for a record-breaking seventh time this year.
