2022 Jack's Dutch Darts Championship draw & schedule

European Tour stage

Michael van Gerwen will begin his quest for a fourth European Tour title of 2022 on home soil against either Sebastian Bialecki or Jelle Klaasen in the second round of the Jack's Dutch Darts Championship, with the draw and schedule of play for this weekend's European Tour event confirmed.

Taking place at the IJsselhallen in Zwolle, the year's eighth European Tour event will see three days of play from Friday to Sunday, with the likes of Dutch legend Van Gerwen, world number two Price and World Champion Peter Wright in action.

Friday's first round will see nine Dutchmen in action as former European Tour event winner Vincent van der Voort takes on Players Championship event winner Danny Jansen in a mouth-watering all-Dutch tie.

UK Open champion Danny Noppert will also be part of an all-Dutch meeting in his opener against Arjan Konterman, one of Thursday evening's three Host Nation Qualifiers.

Martijn Kleermaker faces World Championship quarter-finalist Callan Rydz, while Jermaine Wattimena and Niels Zonneveld are in action against Rene Eidams and Mickey Mansell respectively.

The seeded players enter the event in round two on Saturday, as Van Gerwen meets Bialecki or Klaasen and Dirk van Duijvenbode takes on Mansell or Zonneveld.

Top seed Price awaits the winner of Stefan Bellmont v Mervyn King, while Wright will face either Wattimena or Eidams.

Sunday's Finals Day will see the last 16 take place in the afternoon session, before the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final in the evening.

Coverage will be streamed through DAZN for viewers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and through PDCTV for subscribers in all other territories, as well as through bookmakers worldwide.

PDCTV Subscription options will include a £3.99 Event Pass & a £1.99 Day Pass.
