PDC World Masters

The thirteenth edition of The Masters will be held in Milton Keynes from January 30th to February 2nd. The top 24 players in the world will have direct access to this exclusive tournament held at the Marshall Arena. Winmau becomes the new sponsor in 2025 and the tournament is renamed to Winmau World Masters. A name that carries a lot of tradition with it, as Winmau had been the main sponsor of this tournament for more than forty years in the days of the BDO and the WDF. From this year on, in addition to the top 24 players in the world, up to 180 players will also have a go at the remaining eight places in the main tournament. These players include all tour card holders and the best players from the regional tours of the PDC, including the Challenge and Development Tours. From 2025 the tournament now also counts towards the Order of Merit.

Stephen Bunting is the defending champion, having won his first PDC major last year by beating Michael van Gerwen in the final.
