Wales have been given high-profile support ahead of their bid to win a third BetVictor World Cup of Darts title this weekend.
The Welsh pairing of Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton previously took glory in the annual Pairs event in 2020 and 2023.
The duo reunite this weekend in Frankfurt, entering the event in Saturday's second round as one of the four seeded nations.
Their title challenge has been backed by two members of the Snedd Cymru, Jack Sargeant and James Evans - who met Clayton at Monday's Darts on Your Doorstep event in Aberfan.
Sargeant, the MS for Alyn & Deeside and Minister for Culture, Skills and Social Partnership, said: "The game of darts is strong in Cymru and we with them all the best.
"We'll be looking out for Jonny and Gerwyn. I think they've got a great chance - who better to represent Wales!"
Wales' rivals for the title include hotly-tipped England - represented by world number one Luke Humphries and World Champion Luke Littler - and two-time winners Scotland, who see Peter Wright and Gary Anderson team up again.
Evans, the MS for Brecon & Radnorshire, added: "I will be screaming for Jonny and Gezzy - hopefully the do us really proud.
"It's going to be a really good competition, because the standard across the PDC now is absolutely phenomenal.
"The English pair are going to take some toppling but I think Jonny and Gezzy are going to show them!"
