THE draw for the Las Vegas Players Championship, which will be held at Mandalay Bay Casino & Resort on Sunday 1 July.
World number one Phil Taylor takes on emerging star Kevin McDine to kick off his challenge, while World Champion Raymond van Barneveld meets Alan Matthews in his opener and could also take on new PDC arrival Tony Eccles.
John Part, who won the last Players Championship held at Hayling Island a week ago, will warm up for the defence of his Desert Classic title with a tasty opener against Andy Callaby.
Board 32 will attract plenty of attention, with seeded player Colin Osborne facing Michael van Gerwen or Bryan Webb and the winner then meeting either UK Open finalist Vincent van der Voort or American star Gary Mawson.
Peter Manley is drawn against Paul Lim, while number three seed Colin Lloyd faces Ron Colvard.
The format is the best of five sets, best of three legs per set throughout.
Play will commence at midday local time, in the Islander Ballroom at Mandalay Bay.
