World champion Luke Humphries, teenage sensation Luke Littler and reigning champion Michael van Gerwen will headline the 16-player field at the Poland Darts Masters.
The World Series of Darts will return to Poland in 2024 at PreZero Arena Gliwice on June 14-15, where eight of darts’ biggest names will take on eight east European darts talents.
Littler, who will face Humphries in the Premier League Darts on Thursday – live on Sky Sports Darts, will make his debut on Polish soil.
The 17-year-old reached the World Championship final at the start of this year before landing a nine-darter on his way to the Bahrain Darts Masters title on his World Series debut.
Littler will be joined in the £60,000 event by Humphries, who currently occupies top spot in the Premier League following a run of three consecutive nightly wins as well as the world number one spot on the PDC Order of Merit.
Reigning Poland Darts Masters champion Van Gerwen produced a string of inspired performances to triumph in Warsaw last year, and the Dutch superstar will bid to continue his remarkable World Series record by going back-to-back in Poland.
Former World Champions Michael Smith, Gerwyn Price and Rob Cross will also feature in Gliwice, alongside 2024 World Matchplay champion Nathan Aspinall.
In addition, two-time World Champion Peter Wright will make his Poland Darts Masters debut after missing out on last year’s inaugural staging due to family commitments.
Poland’s number one Krzysztof Ratajski – a winner of ten PDC ranking titles – will head up the eight east Europe representatives, as he prepares to star on home soil.
Radek Szaganski – a winner on the Players Championship circuit in 2023 – will also make his return, while former UK Open quarter-finalist Sebastian Bialecki will make his World Series debut after winning through the first Polish Qualifier in March.
Czech Tour Card holders Adam Gawlas and Karel Sedlacek have earned a place in the field alongside Croatia’s Boris Krcmar, and the field will be completed with players from a Hungarian Qualifier and a second Polish Qualifier, which both take place in May.
