New Zealand Darts Masters

The 2025 New Zealand Darts Masters will be held on August 15 and 16 at the Spark Arena in Auckland. The PDC is sending eight players to Auckland to compete against the strongest players from the Oceania region. This year this includes Mike de Decker, Luke Littler, Stephen Bunting, Chris Dobey, Luke Humphries, Josh Rock, and Gerwyn Price.

Luke Littler begins the tournament against New Zealander Mark Cleaver, whom he defeats 6-4. In the quarterfinals, he faces Belgian Mike de Decker, whom he defeats 6-2. In the semifinals, he defeats Gerwyn Price 7-2 to secure a place in the final against Luke Humphries.

Cool Hand Luke reaches the final after victories over New Zealander Haupai Puha (6-3), Damon Heta (6-2), and Chris Dobey (7-4).

ittler punished a sluggish start from the world number one to race into a 3-0 lead, before following up a clinical 83 kill with legs of 13 and 11 darts to extend his cushion to 6-2. Humphries responded with 13 and 11-dart holds as he fought to hold on to his New Zealand Darts Masters crown, only for an irresistible Littler to wrap up proceedings with successive 11-darters.

Luke Littler produced a mesmerising display to defeat his great rival Luke Humphries and lift the SkyCity New Zealand Darts Masters title on a historic Saturday night in Auckland. 

Littler completed the World Series of Darts double Down Under with an inspired performance in front of a record-breaking crowd at the Spark Arena, averaging over 115 to complete an 8-4 victory. The teenage wonderkid followed up his World Matchplay success with victory at last weekend’s Australian Darts Masters, and he extended his winning run with a stunning triumph in New Zealand.
