A large part of the field for the Danish Darts Open 2018 is known. The PDC is having a Euro Tour tournament in Denmark for the first time at the end of June.
Michael van Gerwen goes in search of his fifth Euro Tour title of the season in Copenhagen. The in form Dutchman won the Dutch Darts Masters in Zwolle and is now again the number one in the seedings at the Danish Darts Open.
Jonny Clayton, winner of the Austrian Darts Open, is the eighth seed head and can meet 'Mighty Mike' in the quarterfinals. Michael Smith, Peter Wright and Rob Cross, like Van Gerwen, get a quarter of the draw in their tournament schedule.
Two former Euro Tour winners will not participate in the Danish Darts Open. Gary Anderson and Dave Chisnall have decided not to register. Anderson in particular has decided against playing the entire European circuit this year.

- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
