Tournament Rules
The first round is a round-robin stage where the 32 players are drawn into eight groups of four. Players will play three first round games.
The top eight qualified players from the PDC Order of Merit are seeded, with the remaining players split into three pools of eight for the draw.
The opening games on Saturday November 9 see the players drawn 1v4 and 2v3. The second set of matches will see the two winners from the first games meet each other, and the two losers also play each other. The third set of matches will consist of the pairings which have not previously met.
Two points are awarded for a win and no points will be awarded for a loss. Each group game is the best of nine legs, with the winner being the first player to win five legs. There will be no tie-break.
After the Group Stage has been completed, the top two players in each group will progress to the knockout phase.
Should there be a two-way Points tie in any position, then the player with the best Leg Difference will be deemed to have finished higher. If both players have the same Leg Difference, then the winner of the group match between those two players will be deemed to be the higher finisher.
In the event of a three-way Points tie, should Leg Difference be the same, then the following factors would be used to separate players, in this order:
Legs Won
Legs Won Against Throw
Tournament Average
At any point where the above sees a separation of three players to two players being equal, the winner of the group match between those two tied players will be deemed to be the highest finisher.
Should the above still not be able to separate three players, then a Nine-Dart Shoot-Out will be played between the relevant players to determine final standings following the conclusion of that session’s matches, with the highest aggregate score over nine darts being used to separate players.
The order of throw in a Nine-Dart Shoot-Out would be determined by throwing nearest the bull beforehand, with the player nearest to the bull being able to choose in which position they throw, and the remaining two players then throwing again for the bull to decide their order.
In the event a Nine-Dart Shoot-Out finishes level between two or more players, those players who have tied on the most points will continue to throw three darts each in the same order until one player scores more points than the other player(s) with their three darts.
