Whitlock and Chisnall were nominated because they had won against Van Gerwen in an impressive way during a television tournament. Whitlock beat the Dutchman 3-0 at the World Grand Prix with a 100+ average. That is particularly high at the World Grand Prix because the legs also have to be started with a double.

Chisnall beat Van Gerwen 5-0 at the World Championship after averaging 107 and hitting fouteen 180's. The remaining nomination went to De Sousa, for his final against James Wade at the Grand Slam of Darts.

The winner will be announced at the end of January during a live show on the PDC's YouTube channel. An exact date for the ceremony has not been confirmed yet.
