The World Series of Darts Finals could be on the move for the first time in its short history.
Established in 2015, the Finals event brings together the eight players who top the World Series Order of Merit. They are seeded, while PDC Order of Merit qualifiers, Tour Card qualifiers and international invites complete the field. All three tournaments staged so far have been won by Michael van Gerwen. The world number one edged out Peter Wright in the first two finals. Last year, he defeated Gary Anderson 11-6 to pick up the increased £200,000 top prize.
Glasgow's Braehead Arena has hosted all three World Series Finals so far. However, it now appears that it is on the move. Austrian newspaper Kronen Zeitung claims that the 2018 edition will be hosted at the Multiversum in Schwechat, near Vienna.
Established in 2011, the Multiversum can accommodate up to 3,000 people. It played host to the Austrian Grand Prix, which is part of the European Tour, in 2016 and 2017. It was rumoured that Schwechat was selected as the host venue ahead of Amsterdam. However, no official confirmation has been made as of yet.

- 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
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
