WDF announces updated schedule for 2022 Lakeside World Championship

The WDF have confirmed the schedule for the 2022 Lakeside World Championship which was rescheduled to take place between April 2-10.

Also some PDC Tour Card holders will play at Lakeside. The PDC has given them a one-off exemption to take part in the WDF tournament. Normally PDC players are not allowed by their contract to participate in tournaments organised by other organisations.
