Draw Grand Slam of Darts confirmed: Wright and Durrant in 'Group of Death'

The draw for the Grand Slam of Darts 2017 has been made on Tuesday afternoon. The Grand Slam of Darts brings together stars from both the PDC and BDO systems as they compete from November 11-19 at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall.
Defending champion Michael van Gerwen has the tough task of Rob Cross in his group but apart from that it should be plain sailing with Murnan and Montgomery part of that group.
Raymond van Barneveld may have a rough ride in his group with Gerwyn Price, Steve Lennon and Jamie Hughes all very capable of defeating the former 5 time world champion.
Phil Taylor's last event before his World Championship finale is at the Grand Slam and should have a safe passage but Wade, Green and Machin could all pose a threat
Peter Wright though has what many people conceive to be the worst draw of them all and that is having Alan Norris, World Youth Champion Corey Cadby and Lakeside champion Glen Durrant so he will have to be on his game to get through.
