Here's how much players can earn in Prize Money at 2024 WDF Lakeside World Championship
WDF
The players competing in the 2024 WDF World Championship at Lakeside have 221,000 pounds of prize money to divide. The tournament at Lakeside will take place from Friday, Nov. 29, to Sunday, Dec. 8.
The prize money is a lot lower than in 2023, when £257,000 was made available. The reduction in prize money has not affected the amount going to the winners of the various components.
In the men's tournament, there will be competition for the top prize of 50,000 pounds. All participants are guaranteed £750 in prize money. The total prize pool for the men's tournament is 158,000 pounds. The ladies have 69,000 pounds to distribute. They too will all receive a minimum of 750 pounds in prize money. The new women's world champion will go home with 25,000 pounds.
There will also be a tournament for boys and girls. The winner of the boys' tournament wins a sum of 3,000 pounds, while the winner in the girls' tournament collects a sum of 1,500 pounds.
There are certainly some interesting names competing at Lakeside; what about darts legend Paul Lim, who remains the only player ever to throw a nine-darter at this iconic darts venue. The darter from Singapore accomplished this feat in 1990. The men's field also includes Jimmy van Schie, Neil Duff, Moreno Blom, Matthew Edgar, Dennis Nilsson, Francois Schweyen, Brian Raman, Sybren Gijbels, Jarno Bottenberg and Corné Groeneveld.
Among the women, Beau Greaves is the big favorite for the world title. Although Fallon Sherrock, Noa-Lynn van Leuven and Mikuru Suzuki are not competing, there are a few other women who could potentially make things difficult for Greaves. The 20-year-old Englishwoman faces competition from the likes of Aileen de Graaf, Rhian O'Sullivan, Deta Hedman and Lisa Ashton.

- The game needs Lewis,he's a top bloke. If they put wright in the premier league last year,they can give Lewis a tour card. He has nothing to proverick6710-12-2024
- What a shame about Sophie. She played brilliant darts all week and was always so calm and controlled. Maybe all those matches at the end just flattened her batteries. She will surely be champion in the future. Congratulations Beau on your 3rd World Championship, she admitted she was not 100% on form but still prevailed.richieburnettrocks09-12-2024
- No matter the competition she faces, when she's retired she can say "I was a multiple Women's World Champion" rather than "I repeatedly got knocked out in the 1st or 2nd round at the PDC World Champs." As a female why wouldn't she want to be a women's world champ? Darts players want to win surely? Her average on the women's tour was 84.86 which would've placed her in 152nd on the Pro Tour, she's wise enough to know that as it stands women still can't compete with the men apart from the odd win here and there mainly on the challenge tour. It's about time the PDC really invested in Women's darts and held a world champs for them.Baphomet08-12-2024
- She can play well but not sure at the moment to win a single game at Ally Pally, here she can take 25000 only playing left hand so easy cash for her bankroll. And Littler apart there isn't any 20 years old player to play PDC Worlds so she can widely take her time to step up.cycyP308-12-2024
