The 2025 World Series of Darts rolls into New York City for its fourth stop of the season — the US Darts Masters — teeing off Friday, June 27, at The Theater at Madison Square Garden.
All eyes will be on Rob Cross, who returns as the reigning champ after edging out Gerwyn Price 8-7 in a nail-biting final last year. But the road to back-to-back titles won't be easy for the Englishman, with rising star Luke Littler and the ever-consistent Luke Humphries both gunning for glory.
Also firmly in the mix is Stephen Bunting, who’s already claimed silverware this season by conquering both the Bahrain Masters and the Nordic Masters.
Cross kicks off his title defence against American hopeful Danny Lauby, while two-time US Masters winner Michael van Gerwen faces off against crowd-favourite Leonard Gates in what promises to be a fiery opener.
After thrilling stops in Bahrain, Den Bosch, and Copenhagen, the World Series roadshow lands in the Big Apple, where 16 elite players, eight PDC pros and eight North American challengers, will battle for the crown.
The first round on Friday sets the tone, with darts royalty like world No. 1 Luke Humphries and world champion Luke Littler set to take center stage, all vying for a shot at Saturday night's final showdown.
