Bullseye for Christmas: Your Ultimate World Darts Championship Preview
As the World Darts Championship returns to dazzle fans this festive season, our special edition serves up a bumper preview packed with exclusive interviews, expert insights, and all the contenders you need to watch
It wouldn’t be Christmas without the thrill of the oche, and this year’s World Darts Championship promises more drama than ever before – make it yours today for only £3.50 .
All eyes are on Luke Littler, the teenage prodigy who stunned the darts world last year to become the youngest ever champion. Now, Littler returns to a sold-out Alexandra Palace, ready to defend his title—but rival Luke Humphries is hot on his heels, eager to seize the Sid Waddell trophy for himself.
In our special preview, we sit down with both Lukes to get their thoughts on the tournament ahead, and we break down their head-to-head records to see who has the edge. But if it’s not Luke lifting the trophy this year, who else could step up? We shine the spotlight on the other top contenders: three-time champ Michael van Gerwen, the ever-dangerous Stephen Bunting, Daryl Gurney, Michael Smith, Chris Dobey, Josh Rock, Gerwyn Price, and the rising Dutch star Gian van Veen.
That’s not all: enjoy exclusive features with Polly James, John McDonald, Matt Porter, and meet the unlucky local who drew Littler in his pub knockout! And for those who love an underdog story, we profile the unknowns hoping to become household names by New Year’s Day.
Whether you’re a seasoned darts fanatic or just in it for the Christmas cheer, our World Darts Championship preview is your perfect companion for the most wonderful time of the year. Let the arrows fly! Buy now at our online shop or at any participating retailer. Online postage and packaging applies.
