Draw released for Players Championship 20 including Humphries-Waites, Heta-Anderson and Cross-Van Barneveld

The draw has been released ahead of Players Championship 20 which will take place later today in Barnsley.

Luke Humphries is top seed once again and will face Scott Waites in the opening round, with other top ties including Damon Heta facing Gary Anderson, Peter Wright-Adam Gawlas and Rob Cross-Raymond van Barneveld.

Gerwyn Price has withdrawn from today's action which means that Wright will be top seed for the World Matchplay draw tomorrow come what may.

While unlike his compatriot Dirk van Duijvenbode, Danny Noppert after winning a title has stuck around in Barnsley and will play today with another £1`2,000 on offer shortly.
