The field is provisionally set for the first European Tour event of the season, the European Darts Open which is set to take place from March 22 to March 24.
Michael van Gerwen is currently number one seed and is joined by a new number two for this year in Ian White. 'The Diamond' is known as one of the top performers on the tour and as such is at his highest position for at least the first few events.
In terms of the UK Qualifiers, we will see the debut of Glen Durrant who qualified recently after a string of ton plus averages. The likes of Justin Pipe, Steve Beaton and the in form Ted Evetts will also be involved.
The European qualifiers are potentially at their strongest for the first event with the likes of Krzysztof Ratajski, Jeffrey de Zwaan and Raymond van Barneveld all in action.
Madars Razma has been imperious so far on the Nordic and Baltic circuit and qualifier as did Pavel Jirkal from Czech.
Further Host Nation and Eastern European qualifiers will be held the day before the event.

- Luke Littler played incredible darts yesterday in the semi-final and the final, heralding a new era of darts (along with some of the other brilliant young players who are emerging). And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.
UndartedWaters18-11-2024 - Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.UndartedWaters16-11-2024
