The World Series of Darts Finals takes place in Amsterdam, live on Sky, as teenage sensation Luke Littler leads the finalised list of seeds for the Dutch showpiece with a host of other key names in action.
The 17-year-old won the World Series rankings this season, ahead of reigning world champion Luke Humphries and Michael van Gerwen – among other stellar names.
The line-up for the World Series showpiece, from September 13-15 from the AFAS Live arena in the Dutch capital, is now complete after the conclusion of the qualifying tournament.
Gerwyn Price, Rob Cross, Michael Smith, Peter Wright and Dimitri van den Bergh have also gained seeded status for the three-day event, while Damon Heta, Nathan Aspinall and Stephen Bunting also secured invites.
