Six players will make their
World Matchplay debuts at the Winter Gardens later this month, while Michael van Gerwen will be the top seed for the prestigious
32-player event.
The 25th staging of the World Matchplay at Blackpool's Winter Gardens will be held from July 21-29, as players compete for "The Phil Taylor Trophy" after the renaming of the honour following the 16-time champion's retirement.
