2020 European Darts Grand Prix Draw & Schedule

PDC Europe

Devon Petersen will open his challenge to win back-to-back European Tour titles against Harry Ward when the European Darts Grand Prix begins in Sindelfingen on Friday.

The year's third of four European Tour events will see a 48-player field competing from October 16-18 at the Glaspalast, with coverage being streamed through PDCTV and bookmakers' websites worldwide.

South Africa's Petersen was the winner as the European Tour resumed at the German Darts Championship in Hildesheim last month, and was amongst the qualifiers for the Sindelfingen event, where he takes on Ward.

Former European Tour finalist John Henderson will play Belgium's Kim Huybrechts in another tasty first round tie, while an all-German clash sees Gabriel Clemens take on Steffen Siepmann.

The 16 seeded players will enter at the second round stage on Saturday, headlined by world number one Michael van Gerwen and Gerwyn Price, who won the BoyleSports World Grand Prix on Monday.

From the original field of players, Peter Wright, Adrian Lewis, Ryan Joyce and Darren Webster have withdrawn. Jose De Sousa and Vincent van der Voort become seeded players, and four additional Host Nation Qualifiers come into the event.

German Superleague champion Nico Kurz headlined the six Host Nation Qualifiers, alongside former Grand Slam of Darts quarter-finalist Michael Unterbuchner, experienced Robert Marijanovic and debutant Markus Buffler, who was competing in only his second qualifier.

PDC Unicorn Challenge Tour Order of Merit winner David Evans came through the Associate Member Qualifier alongside Switzerland's Stefan Bellmont, who will be making his third European Tour appearance.

Thursday also saw the Associate Member Qualifier for next weekend's International Darts Open, as Scott Marsh and Mario Vandenbogaerde secured their places in Riesa.

The European Darts Grand Prix will be broadcast through PDCTV as well as through a series of bookmakers' websites worldwide.

Fans can sign up from Friday morning for a £2.99 PDCTV event pass covering every session of the European Darts Grand Prix & the PDC Women's Series.
