Eight players have a chance to win the coveted title at the 2023 World Grand Prix. Michael van Gerwen was the bookies' favorite prior to the tournament, but 'Mighty Mike' was surprisingly eliminated in the second round on Thursday night.
World number one Michael Smith is still in the tournament, but the betting shops are now assigning Gerwyn Price the highest probability of taking the overall win at the double-in double-out tournament.

Price sits currently at 15/8 with title sponsors, Boyle Sports. While Michael Smith is second on 3/1. Luke Humphries follows at 10/3, while similar prices can be found for Peter Wright, Chris Dobey and Joe Cullen. They sit at 10 and 11/1 respectively.
The value comes from the outsiders mainly which feature that aforementioned trio as well as Martin Schindler and Andrew Gilding. Both are at 25/1 and will be the players seen as least likely to scoop the crown.
This is despite Gilding in particular currently being a major champion and alongside Dobey and Smith, the only current one in the field.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
