The final leg of the qualifying sprint for the World Grand Prix – which will be broadcast live on Sky Sports at the end of September – culminates this weekend at the Flanders Darts Trophy in Antwerp. This event marks the thirteenth stop on the European Tour calendar for the season, and while the PDC’s current top‑two ranked competitors, Luke Littler and Luke Humphries, are not taking part, the tournament still boasts a deep field of high‑profile talent eager to claim the title and secure a place in the Grand Prix lineup.
Among the headline names slated to compete at the Antwerp Expo are seasoned veterans and rising stars alike: Gian van Veen, Gerwyn Price, Michael van Gerwen and James Wade will all be on the oche, each looking to add another trophy to their impressive résumés. In addition, the tournament features Beau Greaves, who made headlines just a week earlier in Prague by becoming the first woman ever to win a match on the Euro Tour.
Greaves will be back in action on Friday evening, where she will face Damon Heta in the opening round. The winner of that clash earns the right to meet Michael van Gerwen in the Saturday session, setting up a tantalising showdown between the sport’s most dominant male player and the trailblazing female competitor. For fans who prefer a smoother viewing experience, the organizers recommend using the Chrome browser, which provides a more accessible video player for the live streams.
