The PDC has announced which players will compete in Players Championship 11 and 12. The two Pro Tour tournaments are to be played on June 11th and 12th at the German venue in Hildesheim.

A good number of household names have been absent for the two-parter in Hildesheim. Gary Anderson, Rob Cross, Chris Dobey, Luke Humphries, Luke Littler, Krzysztof Ratajski and Ryan Searle are among the absentees.
