Entries Players Championship 7-8: All but one Premier League star skips next week's double header in Hildesheim
PDC
The Entries have been confirmed ahead of Players Championship 7-8 which is set to take place next week (March 17-18) in Hildesheim, Germany and as expected, most of the big names will not make the trip over.
With the Premier League at the forefront of player focus, Nathan Aspinall, Stephen Bunting, Rob Cross, Luke Humphries, Chris Dobey, Gerwyn Price and Luke Littler will all skip the next double header.
Only Michael van Gerwen will be involved ahead of the visit to Cardiff in the intervening day after. Other than those names, James Wade, Callan Rydz, Jonny Clayton and Brendan Dolan are all skipping.
Jules van Dongen who shared a video of himself throwing with his left hand continues to skip tournaments, while Michele Turetta also won't make the trip. This means that Stefan Bellmont, Carl Sneyd, Darius Labanauskas, Tommy Lishman, Kevin Burness, Mervyn King, Danny Jansen, Michael Flynn, Jarno Bottenberg, Jeffrey Sparidaans, Gilbert van der Meijden, Jimmy van Schie, Ted Evetts take their spots.
Beau Greaves who won't play the Challenge Tour either at the weekend has not accepted a spot it seems. Peter Wright, Josh Rock, Gary Anderson, Dave Chisnall and Michael Smith are among the top names involved as a result. This offers a big opportunity for new winners and also established names to clear up including MVG who is titleless this year thus far.

- Beau also skipped Players Championships 7 & 8 next week, and PC 3 & 4 four weeks ago. If she next chooses to miss the Women's Series and PC 13 & 14 in mid-April then we can make a fair guess as to her reason.Scoobedybop13-03-2025
- I've commented before,Phil should let us all remember how great he was,and leave your darts in the drawer. Another humiliation will tarnish everything,you couldn't even beat old blokes who you would have beaten before the game started !!rick6712-03-2025

- Aspinall was a no-show: Carl Sneyd steps in from the Challenge Tour.Scoobedybop11-03-2025
- Likewise, I have always been a fan of Mervyn and with this worry on his mind, it explains why his form and ranking plummeted. It is really sad to hear this, often chatted to Mervyn and Tracey during the Lakeside days, both are lovely people. It does seem naive not acknowledging the fact it was earnings, surely there must be others in the same situation. I really hope the Kings can get through this....would a go fund me be permittedrichieburnettrocks11-03-2025
- I always like Merv,but he does he seems slightly naive with his comments. I wish you all the best, hope you can get sorted,and try and get back to a decent game,a bit of money.....and get rid of the dogs,if that's your main concern,I believe your priorities may be slightly wrongrick6710-03-2025
- What’s with the dogs element to this story, trying to pull at the heart strings? Just goes to show that being a good dart player does not equate to being that bright. Seriously, ‘I thought you didn’t have to pay tax on winnings’ , your a pro dart player and its your line of work, your not playing the lottery or placing a bet. I think it was Phil Taylor who said you should put a third to one side of all winnings into a bank account, obviously Merv was wearing his earplugs at the time.Mysstree10-03-2025
- The thing is... the folks who "humiliated" Taylor in the Seniors Events never really achieved anything in the important events - like Taylor did. Taylor had/has nothing to prove... and beating Taylor after he had retired is of zero value. Taylor in his prime would have made easy work of all of them. Cheers.MrYnyslas197107-03-2025
- Taylor was humiliated in the seniors events,so he really has nothing to lose by playing littler. I think he should put his darts away,and let us remember what a great player he wasrick6706-03-2025
- actually, since you're asking... yes. yes i do.colt06-03-2025
