World Grand Prix participants can raise money for charity when hitting double 20

Participants at the World Grand Prix 2024 can raise money for charity during the World Grand Prix 2024. For every time the double 20 is hit, tournament sponsor Boylesports will transfer 20 pounds to charity.

More doubles are hit at the World Grand Prix than at any other tournament. This is because players must not only end the leg with a double, but also start it with one.

Most players choose their favorite double to open a leg with. Double 16 is a popular choice for many players, but there are also many darters who opt for the double 20. According to the PDC, Michael van Gerwen, Gerwyn Price, James Wade, Michael Smith and Dave Chisnall choose the double 20 as their favorite double to open a leg with.
