Stefan Bellmont will make his Mr Vegas Grand Slam of Darts debut next month, after securing top spot on the 2025 Winmau Challenge Tour rankings last weekend.
The 2025 Challenge Tour season drew to a close with Events 21-24 in Wigan on October 25-26, and Bellmont claimed his third title of the campaign with Event 23 success to overhaul Darius Labanauskas and finish top of the final standings.
As a result, the Swiss star will make his Grand Slam bow at Wolverhampton’s WV Active Aldersley, as the sport’s biggest names compete for the coveted Eric Bristow Trophy from November 8-16.
22 spots in the 32-player field have now been confirmed, with two players set to qualify as Players Championship winners following the conclusion of the PDC ProTour season on October 30.
Chris Dobey and Damon Heta provisionally occupy those qualifying positions after winning a brace of Players Championship titles in 2025, although a host of players remain in contention ahead of this week’s double-header in Wigan.
The Grand Slam field will then be finalised on October 31 following the Tour Card Holder Qualifier, which offers an additional eight places in Wolverhampton.
