All eyes will be on Leicester, England, as it is set to host the 28th edition of the World Grand Prix Darts beginning Monday, October 6.
Mike De Decker comes into this year's World Grand Prix Darts as the defending champion, having defeated the current world No. 1 Luke Humphries 6-4 in last year's final.
Having won the tournament as recently as 2023, Humphries will look to win the World Grand Prix Darts again this time, therefore also avenging his loss from last year.
However, it will be far from easy for Humphries with the likes of current world champion Luke Littler, Michael van Gerwen, Stephen Bunting, and Gian van Veen also vying for the title.
