Live on ITV 4 - November 25th to 27th live from Butlins Minehead.
The last action before the 2017 World Championships
G
The top sixty four players based on performances in 20 Players Championship events qualify for this. The size of the field is double of previous events.
Due to inactivity in the qualifying events Phil Taylor is a notable absentee here.
The draw is done on seedings, with top seed playing the 64th ranked player, 2nd seed playing 63rd and so on.
Due to the seedings being based on the performances in the 20 qualifiers there are a few surprises. While Michael van Gerwen is in his usual #1 spot, Gary Anderson is seeded 23, Adrian Lewis 25th and James Wade 26th. On the other hand Benito van de Pas is an unlikely second seed, Ian White 3rd seed and Gerwyn Price 5th seed.

BTW keep your eyes peeled for the World's 'prediction' game next week. The draw is Monday so I will try and get it on for Tuesday or Wednesday. It is in the format of a fantasy football type thing where you pick a 'squad' of players and get performance related points.
Ran well last year.

Peter Wright also came back from a big deficit to win 11-8.
Now a youth final between van Peer and Cadby.

oh, PDC website was lying. Dave Chisnall is in the final

I'm always a bit dismayed when Chisnall reaches a tv final because you know he'll get slaughtered.
