Draw and schedule confirmed for Queensland Darts Masters: Price-Heta and Whitlock-Wade among standout ties

The draw and schedule has been confirmed ahead of the Queensland Darts Masters which will take place between Friday August 12 - Saturday August 13 and sees the World Series of Darts return back to Australia and New Zealand for the first time since 2019.

Since then, Damon Heta and Simon Whitlock have brought home glory to Australia with their World Cup of Darts triumph and will be in two of the must watch ties of the opening round as they face Gerwyn Price and James Wade on Friday.

Gordon Mathers is the other PDC Tour Card Holder to receive invites and will face Fallon Sherrock in his opener. Top seed Dimitri van den Bergh opens his account to attempt to win his third World Series title of the season facing Kiwi ace Koha Kokiri.

Bailey Marsh as a World Series debutant will have an experience like no other when he faces Premier League and World Matchplay champion, Michael van Gerwen.

Reigning World Series Finals champion Jonny Clayton takes on Haupai Puha, while Joe Cullen faces Dave Marland with both coming into the fold for these events.
