Schedule Sunday afternoon at World Series of Darts Finals 2024 with Michael van Gerwen against Luke Humphries in quarter-finals
PDC
We begin a jam-packed final day of the 2024 World Series of Darts Finals with the four quarter-finals on Sunday afternoon. All eight players in the final eight have won a major tournament before, four of whom are even (former) world champions.

It is the tenth time the World Series of Darts Finals has been scheduled. This year the tournament will be played for the fifth time at the AFAS Live in Amsterdam. Who will advance to the finals? Read our preview here.
Luke Littler v Chris Dobey
We kick off the afternoon session with a delightful affair between Luke Littler and Chris Dobey. Both men have already had two tough games. Littler started the tournament with a 6-5 win over Ross Smith, before being responsible for the elimination of Raymond van Barneveld (6-4). Dobey first eliminated Dimitri van den Bergh (6-5) and then won 6-4 over Boris Krcmar.
It will be the second time the two Englishmen have faced each other. They previously met at Players Championship 15 at the end of July. Then Littler won 7-2 over Dobey in the semifinals, after which 'The Nuke' eventually took the title as well.
Luke Humphries v Michael van Gerwen

An absolute cracker in the AFAS Live Sunday afternoon; the reigning world champion against the three-time world champion. If both men play as well as they did Saturday, we will get to see a lot of spectacle. After a 6-4 victory over Jonny Clayton, Van Gerwen won with 106 average from Danny Noppert (6-3). Humphries also reached an average of 106 in his match win against Damon Heta (6-5), after 'Cool Hand Luke' had previously swept aside Haupai Puha (6-3).
Van Gerwen once possessed a fantastic record against Humphries, but that is long gone. Van Gerwen won thirteen of the first eighteen confrontations between them. The last eight encounters, however, were all won by Humphries, so the balance is now 13-13.
Daryl Gurney v Peter Wright
Once again Peter Wright has entered the final stage of a tournament. The Scot first recorded a resounding 6-1 victory over Dave Chisnall, and was then also too strong with large figures for Jeff Smith (6-2). Daryl Gurney already has two great victories behind him: 'Superchin' first eliminated Dirk van Duijvenbode (6-4) and then also defeated Gerwyn Price (6-3).
It will be the 36th time Wright and Gurney have faced each other in an official duel. Twenty times the victory went to Wright, 12 times Gurney won and three times they tied when that was still possible in the old format of Premier League Darts.

Rob Cross v Michael Smith
Only one more spot is up for grabs in the semifinals at the World Series of Darts Finals. That will be an Englishman anyway, because in the last quarterfinal Rob Cross will face Michael Smith. Both players could have already been out. Cross survived four matchdarts against Doets on Saturday night, while Nijman left six matchdarts unused against Smith.
Cross has a pretty good record against his compatriot. Of the previous 28 encounters, no fewer than twenty were won by Cross. However, the last two clashes between them were won by Smith.
Where can I watch the World Series of Darts Finals live?

The tournament will be broadcast in its entirety on ITV4. The first broadcast begins on Friday, Sept. 13 at 6 p.m.. Then the first part of the first round of the World Series of Darts Finals will be on the program.
In the afternoon session on Saturday, Sept. 14, the final eight matches from the first round will be played. The winners of these matches, like Friday night's winners, will compete in the second round on Saturday night. The eight remaining players will make their appearance on Sunday afternoon, Sept. 15, during the quarterfinals. On Sunday night, the denouement of the major tournament in the Netherlands will be with the semifinals and finals.
How much prize money is there to win?
All participants are guaranteed 5,000 pounds of starting money. If a player wins his first round, that amount increases to 10,000 pounds. A spot in the quarterfinals of the World Series of Darts Finals earns £17,500.
Four players remain on the final night. The players in the semifinals return home with £25,000 in prize money anyway. The finalists secure £40,000, while the winner takes home the top prize of £80,000. The prize money won does not count toward the world rankings.

- 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
- She's technically not a professional though as she doesn't hold a pro tour card.mr-pablo04-11-2026
