See the draw for the 2025 UK Open quarter-finals right here including Luke Littler vs Gian van Veen
PDC
The fight for major glory at Butlins, Minehead is hotting up and the quarter-finals for the 2025 UK Open are set, including some incredible intriguing contests for Sunday afternoon.
Headlining the quarter-finals is a battle between Gian van Veen and Luke Littler, in a rematch of the 2023 World Youth Championship final. Littler has survived two tricky tests so far, seeing off Peter Wright on Friday and Krzysztof Ratajski on Saturday evening, but it's arguable the performance of Van Veen in his last 16 tie, that stands out the most as the Dutch prodigy took a 10-9 victory averaging 109.9.

Elsewhere, world number one Luke Humphries, who has taken 20 of his last 22 legs at the 2025 UK Open in 10-0 and 10-2 demolitions over Ryan Searle and Ryan Joyce respectively, now has the tricky test of the vastly experienced former UK Open champion James Wade.
Michael Smith and Nathan Aspinall came into this event with their form a little uncertain. Both though, have brought their best darts to Minehead this weekend and are into the quarter-finals. In the last eight, Smith is set to do battle with Welshman Jonny Clayton, whilst for Aspinall, Josh Rock is the next hurdle to overcome.

- I agree. There needs to be a points system and preferably just a rolling one year. World Championship should earn the most points though it can be argued that the current qualification system does see a fair few players qualify from regional country qualifiers who would struggle to hold down a place on the Pro Tour. If prize money won is going to remain as the determining factor for ranking then the World Championship should just consist of the 128 Tour Card Holders. Another option would be to take the World Championship out of the rankings and have it as the stand alone pinnacle that you qualify for by winning certain tournaments or your ranking position, sort of like a GSOD+.Mysstree05-04-2025
- The Premier league has literally become a pantomime with a hero and villain, all thats needed is an older dart player in drag to play the joke old woman / queen and a younger woman to play the male hero. Barry is probably working on it now.Mysstree04-04-2025

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
- obviously littler has the potential to surpass everybody simply because nobody has been this good at this age before, but people who think he would be any kind of favourite right now against prime taylor in a big final have short memories. it's obvious that prime taylor wouldn't win as many world titles if he was playing today, but there's also good reason to believe he'd be winning more than anybody else. hell, his statistical profile still stands alone in darts history and he might statistically be even better if he was playing today with better equipment, larger beds, more competition therefore more motivation, etc.colt24-03-2025
- Bad idea. Every other Major ranking title prize funds added together do not come to £1 million. Add £500k to the prize pot and spread it out evenly over the draw.Mysstree24-03-2025
- Jake Paul is an arrogant American attention seeker. It would be nice to see - Usyk knock the arrogance out of him... but take his time in doing so.MrYnyslas197123-03-2025
- The Premier League is a glorified promotional tool for piss heads to attend and shout abuse at dart players so averages are not the way to pick the best line up. Throw Peter Manley, Eric Bristow and Jocky Wilson into the mix for some real fireworks.Mysstree22-03-2025
