Leading online gambling company BetVictor has extended its partnership with PDC by continuing with the title sponsorship of the BetVictor World Cup of Darts ahead of the 2020 tournament, which will take place from June 18-21 at Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg.

Since being introduced to the calendar in 2010, the 32-nation tournament has grown in stature celebrating the sport's global expansion as two-player teams compete across four days. 

"The 2019 BetVictor World Cup of Darts was a sensational tournament and it's fantastic that BetVictor has extended its association with the event in 2020," said PDC Chairman Barry Hearn.

"The World Cup of Darts reflects our worldwide growth as a sport and is getting more competitive every year as developing nations gain valuable big-stage experience.

"The tournament is massively popular with players, fans and our worldwide broadcast partners and I'm sure that the 2020 BetVictor World Cup of Darts will be another huge success." 

Matt Scarrott, Director of Sportsbook at BetVictor, said: "We're very pleased to continue with the title sponsorship of the BetVictor World Cup of Darts, which is set to be another exciting competition.

"We've previously partnered with the PDC on a number of successful tournaments and we're confident the 2020 competition will set the bar even higher."

The 2020 BetVictor World Cup of Darts will return for a second successive year to the Barclaycard Arena with Scotland set to defend the title they won in 2019, defeating Ireland in the final.

Both the Netherlands and England are the other previous winners, having claimed four victories apiece from 2010-2018 before Scottish pair Gary Anderson and Peter Wright took glory in the most recent edition.
