The PDC is set to restart with the Summer Series taking place on July 8 and the World Matchplay beginning on it's usual date of July 18. However for PDPA Chairman Peter Manley, he isn't fully for the idea.

“The PDC tries to get the calendar full again as soon as possible. I think it is too fast now, but they are almost desperate to offer darts again. They are of course under pressure from TV channels that want to broadcast something. But I don't think the majority of top players will travel at all, ” Manley told RTL Nieuws.

"I think players will only come if the tournaments are ranked, otherwise they wouldn't find it worth travelling to England. They will test everyone, so players should also travel alone and stay at the hotel. It's going to be very different from what everyone is used to. ”

That is why Manley, himself former number one in the world, thinks that the mooted date of early July is too early to organise tournaments again. "I think we should actually look to the end of July or August to organize any kind of tournament."
