Draw released for Players Championship 13: Van Barneveld versus Cadby and Lewis against Van den Bergh among first round ties

Among the names not involved include Michael van Gerwen and James Wade (both Players Championship events) and Rob Cross (only Tuesday). Gary Anderson though will make his first appearance on the tour since March after injury problems.
In terms of the ties to look out for in the first round, they include Raymond van Barneveld versus Corey Cadby and Adrian Lewis against Dimitri van den Bergh. Anderson faces Geert Nentjes, one of the new Dutch Tour Card holders this year.
Max Hopp will face off against the impressive Scott Baker who has made good strides since moving over to the PDC. The same can be said for Mark McGeeney but he faces a tough test in number one seed Ian White.
