2025 KenoGO Australian Darts Masters - Day One latest

Luke Littler (PDC)

The 2025 KenoGO Australian Darts Masters gets underway in Wollongong on Friday, as Gerwyn Price opens his defence of the title against Australian qualifier Joe Comito.

Day One of the World Series of Darts event will see eight PDC superstars locking horns with the eight Oceanic representatives in Friday's first round, with World Champion Luke Littler and world number one Luke Humphries also in action.

Littler - fresh from lifting the World Matchplay title last month - faces New Zealand's number one Haupai Puha in his opening round tie, with Humphries pitted against Puha's compatriot Jonny Tata for a place in the quarter-finals.

Northern Ireland's World Cup champion Josh Rock will make his World Series of Darts debut against Australia's former World Cup winner Simon Whitlock, while Mike De Decker and Brandon Weening collide in a battle of the World Series newcomers.

Australian number one Damon Heta will also take centre stage on home soil against two-time World Championship qualifier James Bailey, as top seed Stephen Bunting begins his title bid against debutant Brody Klinge.

The evening's other last 16 clash will see world number seven Chris Dobey make his debut Down Under, and the Bedlington star goes up against Tim Pusey, who returns to the World Series stage following a six-year hiatus.

The KenoGO Australian Darts Masters will be broadcast live on Fox Sports in Australia, through DAZN in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and on PDCTV in all other global territories.

UK fans can also watch live on PDCTV and ITVX, with delayed coverage on ITV4 beginning from 1900 BST on Friday, and 1700 BST on Saturday.
