The 2020 US Darts Masters, which was scheduled for June 5-6 this year at Madison Square Garden, has been postponed and moved back to June 4-5 2021.
The US Darts Masters line-up will be led by current World Champion Peter Wright; world number one Michael van Gerwen and Fallon Sherrock; who was set to make her US debut after her history making exploits.
With the global restrictions currently in place due to Coronavirus, the decision was made to move the World Series and North American Championship back 12 months.
“There was huge excitement about taking the US Darts Masters to Madison Square Garden; not just from the players set to compete in June; but also across the wider North American darting community," said PDC Chief Executive Matthew Porter.
"However, with the ongoing worldwide situation we felt that the right decision was to postpone the World Series' visit to New York for 12 months.
"This decision only strengthens our resolve to make the 2021 US Darts Masters and North American Championship a success; as part of our global World Series of Darts tour."

- 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
