A long-awaited announcement on the BDO World Trophy is coming next week, according to BDO Chairman Des Jacklin who spoke to BBC Radio Lincolnshire on Tuesday night.
The future of the tournament had been in doubt due to the players seemingly not knowing information about the event with a location not yet been announced and ticket sales not starting yet.
Jacklin though teased the announcement in an interview which he had with his local radio station last night; meaning it will likely be resolved shortly.
Last year Glen Durrant won the Men's World Trophy. He defeated Michael Unterbuchner in the final. 'Duzza' will of course not be involved this year; due to making the switch to the PDC in January. Fallon Sherrock is the defending Ladies champion defeating Lorraine Winstanley in Preston.

- If he went on the Seniors tour surely he would mop up the titles?Mysstree26-11-2024
- I'll miss Steve Thank you for all the memories and great matches. I was there when he (luckily) won the 96 World Championship, I expected him to win and perfom better in the PDC than he did as he moved over so early when he still had good form. Looks great for 60, today's players should take note !! Sure he was a driving instructor when in the BDO. A cool guy, very friendly and interesting to chat with.No theatrics on stage, just got on and played darts Sign him up SKY !!!richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- I agree. With the number of tournaments these days?, Phil could probably earn £2 million a year if still playing. I can't believe Chisnall has earned over half a million for being so inept, he barely gets past the first round, stealing a living. That's outrageous.richieburnettrocks26-11-2024
- As prize money increases each year and there are now more tournaments then logically breaking the £2 million barrier is going to happen, only thing preventing it is the now deeper strength in depth of the darting field. If you took Taylor’s best two consecutive years and substituted the prize money from now onto the tournaments he won he would have passed the £2 million.Mysstree26-11-2024
- Only Gary Anderson in MVG’s quarter who should really trouble him assuming he wins his first two games. If he can’t get out of that quarter of the draw he will be hard pushed to win another World Title.Mysstree26-11-2024
