The entries have been released for the first PDC Super Series. Which is due to begin this Thursday with a return to the University of Bolton Stadium. Also known to darting fans as The Reebok, the former home of the UK Open.

Hosting the tournament and the players inside a bubble environment will be the Bolton Whites Hotel which is inside the stadium similar to the Marshall Arena.
Four events will take place over the course of February 25-28 with 128 players set to battle it out for the £10,000 tournaments each day.
While provisional, only five Tour Card holders have opted out of proceedings so far. These are Jamie Hughes, Cristo Reyes, Wesley Harms, Darren Penhall and Robert Marijanovic.
Hughes is known to be recovering following elbow surgery, while Marijanovic will miss the first few events after winning his Tour Card which was revealed post Q-School.

Reyes and Harms haven't been seen at all since before the pandemic at PDC tournaments with both continuing their absences from the tour.

While they will be replaced off the Q-School Order of Merit with the traditional initial Challenge Tour events which would occur before the first ProTour action not taking place yet.
As a result, both Rusty-Jake and Rowby-John Rodriguez will make the trip over it seems. While Luc Peters and Lorenzo Pronk who just missed out on European Q-School will make their ProTour debuts.
Chas Barstow who missed out to Danny Baggish by leg difference will also get a spot in the Super Series.
This means pending late withdrawals when they arrive for their Covid tests before Thursday, the likes of Michael van Gerwen, Gerwyn Price, Peter Wright, Gary Anderson will be involved.

As will Raymond van Barneveld who will make his return to tour action after winning his Tour Card back at European Q-School.
Dimitri van den Bergh similarly was potentially set to miss a period of time after undergoing knee surgery but he is on the entry list with the UK Open also on the horizon next weekend.
In an update prior to the event, Wayne Jones and Florian Hempel will also not be involved with Michael Rasztovits and Martin Thomas taking their spots through the Q-School Order of Merit.
While Jones' reason is unknown, Hempel according to reports has withdrawn due to private reasons and after an incident has decided not to play.

- He produced some impressive numbers in that qualifying campaign. I'm excited to see him compete at the World Championship once again, even if it will be difficult to replicate last year's success even with an improved performance, with the draw playing a huge role in determining his fortunes.Deduce635811-11-2026
- I often think about this very question. I think they should revive the format. They could even invite representatives from MODUS Super Series, with four series winners from the past year, and the ADC, with finalists from the Global Championship and perhaps other events. Why not throw in eligible representatives from the JDC and even the soft-tip game too?Deduce635811-11-2026
- So what if littler missed out, he doesnt have to enter everythingant10-11-2026
- Good, absolutely no loss if we never see this dancing goof ever again......no that is not fair. He absolutely cannot and has never been remotely able to dance!richieburnettrocks10-11-2026
- Yes Phil,now the money in the game is bigger than ever,you'd play littler. Well so would I! Retire on your memory Phil,and your successful careerrick6709-11-2026

- Ultimately it is a bye for whoever draws Barney. It will be another stroppy and sulky performance once he goes behind. Barney was excellent but really must completely call it a day now.richieburnettrocks07-11-2026
- I'm disappointed he was not able to secure a spot at the Grand Slam. With Carl Sneyd taking care of Daryl Gurney, he would have had to beat Andy Boulton before facing the winner of Sneyd vs Mensur Suljović for a Grand Slam spot. Unfortunately, after beating Filip Bereza comfortably, he succumbed to Boulton, and the board would ultimately be won by the highly inconsistent Carl Sneyd. Since he could instead have been drawn against the likes of Cristo Reyes, Dirk van Duijvenbode and Stephen Bunting, I think once Gurney was out of the picture he would have been favourite to win his board, and it seems like a massive missed opportunity to put 5 grand on his ranking and seal another major TV appearance ahead of the Worlds. The highs and lows of following Raymond van Barneveld!Deduce635806-11-2026
- Probably i will receive a lot of backlash and hate for this reaction, but well, so be it. I am more than sick and tired of those lies of you Barry Hearn. How dare you defend yourself over the back of Fallon’s son! He has a disability and not an illness, so let me correct that for you! I know because I have the exact same disability. I have tried to reach out to Fallon in the past, and offered her to help her and her son, because I was struggling with the same problems, and I understood the boy. I wanted him to have finally someone who understood him. However she told me that she did not want my help, and I have respected Fallon’s choice. I have never asked Fallon for money. They don’t need money in that case. I only ever wanted the best for Fallon and Rory, but I have to be honest about the situation. Fallon should tell the true story and not be forced to tell lies. I don’t hate Fallon, and I don’t begrudge or envy a single penny that she gets, but this situation/case is just not fair. I hate the lies and the dishonesty and injustice. I don’t want Fallon to be hated because there is an unfair disadvantage created. Don’t proclaim your false lies over the back of Rory! I only stand for integrity and justice. I am precisely the one who always sticks up for Fallon. And you don't, you don't give a damn about them. You were never there for them, and now you only want to save your own position! You are just trying to talk your way out of your own bad behavior at the expense of someone with a disability. And to Fallon, I don’t know if this may ever reach you, and you read it, but I want you to know I love you and I love your son Rory very much, I am sorry how things developed and went. I hope you and Harriet are still friends. I am sorry if I were too persistent to you, or you experienced it that way, but it was never my intention. Please understand I have autism as well. As Barry Hearn would say, I am only just a human being too, and I also make mistakes and misjudge things sometimes. I promise you I did everything out of the deepest love and care for you and Rory. If I were you, I should just keep all the money, only please never be dishonest or tell lies anymore for Barry Hearn, or anyone else. I hope you have the best life, and I wish nothing more than the best for you. I have always loved the two of you. Farewell.Hiddo05-11-2026
- She is a professional. If darts is her income, she is a professional. Same as Adrian Lewis, Martin Adams. A tour card just means someone can play on the PDC tour. You could even make a case that Clayton wasn't a professional (until recently I believe) because he had employment elsewhere.BandB04-11-2026
