OtherSunday, 17 August 2025 at 17:00
On Friday, August 15, the draw for the Zwaantje Masters 2025 was conducted at Café Zaal ’t Zwaantje in Eindhoven. Co-organiser and competitor Ruud Kuijten oversaw proceedings alongside Bas Engelen, confirming the seven groups for the main event, which features 42 players.
The line-up is stacked with quality. Defending champion Wessel Nijman returns to protect his crown but will face stern tests from the likes of Danny Noppert, Scott Williams, Wesley Plaisier, Andy Hamilton, Devon Petersen, Darryl Fitton, Marvin van Velzen and Jimmy van Schie.
Fitton is in Group One alongside Jurjen van der Velde and Damian Mol. Williams has landed alongside Jamai van den Herik who has been incredible on the Challenge Tour. Hamilton has landed with Jeffrey Sparidaans while Devon Petersen has Corne Groeneveld to contend with.
Danny Noppert, one of a few Tour Card holders and the current world number 15, landed in Group 7 alongside none other than Jimmy van Schie, the world number one in the WDF rankings. To make matters even more daunting, they were joined by Michael van de Ven, Willem Mandigers, Dennis van der Steen and René Smits, making Group 7 the Group of Death of sorts in regards to home hopes.
In the group stage, the top two players from each group will qualify directly for the last 16, with the two best third-place finishers also progressing. From there, the tournament switches to straight knockout format, culminating in the crowning of the Zwaantje Masters 2025 champion on Saturday, August 23.

- Sophie v Paige warranted a final and deserved a longer format, despite the completely shambolic start to the match regarding the scoring which I think unnerved both players, it was an excellent game. Both are outstanding players with great futures in darts. It was a shame such talented players had to meet so early and that Paige is out, she is brilliant and blitzed Sophie in that first set. Fantastic comeback from Sophie, so calm and nonchalant, survived a real scare but hope she becomes World Champion.richieburnettrocks04-12-2025

- Oh fudge off. Who the hell decided Mardull was preferred choice. Just look as its idiotic face. What a talentless waste of space What a travesty when you compare what ITV had. He comes across as a jokey person but it's a class A piece of sheet, miserable as hell and completely full of himself. I don't know anyone who can say anything positive about this goof. Hopefully he'll meet Chris Mason in a dark alley. It really is paving over paradise.richieburnettrocks26-11-2025
- Needs to get the dart tip up when he pulls the dart back and his game will come back.BandB25-11-2025
- Absolutely disgraceful, really I've said many times that ITV coverage is superior to SKY and SKY know that. Jacqui was absolutely fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Emma from SKY is more interested in what to wear than learning about darts. Chris Mason is absolutely the best and greatest commentator on TV, even better than Alex Jacques on F1 and Alex is absolutely brilliant. It is criminal that Chris and Alan will probably never be on TV again, what an amazing waste of talent. Poor Ned, who is just as excellent and knowledgeable on darts as the Tour de France has lost both gigs this year. The whole ITV team from presentation, commentary, production the whole team will definitely be missed and I have enjoyed every minute of their coverage. Thank you so much. John Part is the ONLY decent and knowledgeable person on SKY. I liked Glenn Durrant the player but he is awkward and dreadful on commentary all the rest are utterly useless.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
- Gurney is off form and will completely crack and have a meltdown as the crowd will be relentless, although I think Beau will beat him anyway. I also think Fallon will beat the Helium voiced Chisnall. Poor Gemma has a toughie Peter Wright is also completely off the boil but will probably squeeze past Lisa. Ian White v Mervyn King is an old school classic.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025

- Hate the idea. Darts is loud and exciting without this gimmick format. Golf needs it because it's otherwise boring. Sorry but same applies for royale rumble style knock out.BandB19-11-2025
