The World Series of Darts Finals is underway at the AFAS Live in Amsterdam, running from 17-20 September 2026. It is the 12th edition of the World Series season-ending tournament after six unranked events, and the action continues tonight with Luke Littler and Nathan Aspinall among those in second-round action.
Michael van Gerwen, the defending champion, is the top seed. He defeated Luke Littler in the 2025 final to win his sixth title. Van Gerwen won in Bahrain and Copenhagen and also reached the final in Riyadh. Other victors this season included Luke Humphries in New York, Jonny Clayton in Auckland, James Wade in Wollongong, and Littler defeated Van Gerwen in that Riyadh final. Van Gerwen still finished top in the Order of Merit despite not playing in the US. Price, Littler, Humphries, Gian van Veen, Clayton, Wade and Stephen Bunting are seeded.
Nathan Aspinall, Josh Rock, Damon Heta, Danny Noppert, Jim Long, Ross Smith, Ben Robb and Simon Whitlock have qualified through the World Series rankings. Ryan Searle, Wessel Nijman, Chris Dobey and Jermaine Wattimena are next best placed on the Order of Merit. Rob Cross, Kevin Doets, Dirk van Duijvenbode and Daryl Gurney lead the Tour Card qualifiers. Man Lok Leung, Lourence Ilagan and Alexis Toylo were due to play, but only Motomu Sakai out of the Asian stars will appear due to visa issues.
The first round was played over 17-18 September with two sessions both starting at 6pm. The second round takes place on Saturday over two sessions starting at 12pm and 6pm. The latter is an earlier start for the UK given it is European based, so will finish earlier than usual UK majors. The quarter-finals are on Sunday 20th September from 12:00-16:00, with the semi-finals and final also on Sunday from 12:00-16:00.
Coverage throughout the tournament is on ITV4 and ITVX, the free-to-air platform in the UK. Further afield, it will be shown on Viaplay in the Netherlands, DAZN in Germany, and for those without coverage, it will be shown on PDCTV as part of the monthly subscription package or annual for around £50 a year. This also gives fans the chance to buy tickets.
