About our Darts news
Latest news on darts, including PDC, WDF, Premier League updates, World Championship coverage, and latest tournament results from the professional circuit.
Professional darts has evolved into a global sporting phenomenon, with the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) and World Darts Federation (WDF) organising prestigious tournaments that attract millions of viewers worldwide. The sport features elite players competing for substantial prize money, with major events broadcast across multiple continents.
The PDC's Premier League continues to revolutionise the sport with its weekly format, while the World Championship at Alexandra Palace remains darts' flagship event. Recent developments include expanded international tours, increased prize money, and growing participation in Asian markets, particularly in Japan and China.
Beyond the professional circuit, darts maintains its grassroots appeal through local leagues, pub competitions, and youth development programmes. The sport's accessibility and social nature have helped maintain its popularity, while initiatives to encourage female participation have led to expanded women's tours and increased prize money parity.
Darts' journey from pub game to professional sport began in the 1920s, but the real transformation came in the 1970s with televised competitions. The sport's split in 1994 between the British Darts Organisation (BDO) and the PDC marked a crucial turning point, leading to today's professional era characterised by sell-out arenas and multi-million pound prize funds.
