PDC World Masters

About

The PDC World Masters returns in 2026 as a ranking major and will be held from 28 January to 1 February at the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes. Luke Humphries is the defending champion after winning a dramatic final against Jonny Clayton at the 2025 World Masters, securing his seventh major title and a £100,000 winner’s prize. The main tournament features a 32-player field and counts towards the PDC Order of Merit. Prior to the main event, a large qualifying phase is held involving non-qualified tour card holders and representatives from multiple PDC tours. These players are divided into 32 groups, with group winners competing for eight qualification spots for the World Masters main draw.
