Luke Humphries (Lawrence Lustig, PDC)

A third staging of the PDC Home Tour will begin on Monday October 26 ahead of 19 days of play through to December 11.

Following this year's two previous stagings of the home-broadcast event, won by Nathan Aspinall and Luke Humphries respectively, a total of 42 players will compete in PDC Home Tour III.

Each player will participate in three groups across the opening 18 days of action, with combined results forming a league table from which the top seven players will progress to the Championship Group.

The action will begin on Monday October 26 with Group One, as the opening seven players compete in a round-robin format on the day.

Humphries will headline Group One, alongside former UK Open finalist Barrie Bates, James Wilson, Andy Boulton, Adam Hunt, William Borland and Jonathan Worsley.

Group Two on Tuesday October 27 will feature top 32 star Chris Dobey, Women's Series Order of Merit winner Lisa Ashton and Development Tour champion Ryan Meikle alongside Daniel Larsson, Marko Kantele, Krzysztof Kciuk and David Pallett.

Wednesday's Group Three will feature evergreen Steve Beaton, PDC ranking title winners Mickey Mansell, Joe Murnan and Alan Tabern as well as Richard North, Nathan Derry and Gary Blades.

The PDC Home Tour III will be broadcast live in PDCTV, as well as via bookmakers' websites worldwide.
