The eighth edition of The Masters was held in the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes from January 31 to February 2. Defending champion Michael van Gerwen surprisingly loses 10-6 against Jonny Clayton from Wales in the first round.

Wright started the tournament with a 10-7 win over Joe Cullen. In the second round he whitewashed Dave Chisnall 10-0. Wright reached the final by defeating fellow countryman Gary Anderson (11-7). Smith was too strong for Austrian ace Mensur Suljovic (10-6), Adrian Lewis (10-6) and debutant Nathan Aspinall (11-10) in his road to the final.
