Grand Slam of Darts 2025 Format

The Grand Slam of Darts will feature 32 players split across eight groups, with each player facing the other once in a best-of-nine legs match. Winners of their respective matches will be awarded two points, and the two players with the most points will make it out of their groups to enter the knockout stage of the tournament.

In the second knockout round, matches will increase in length to a best-of-19 legs format, with the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final all being a best-of-31 legs affair.

Last Year’s Winner: Luke Littler

The current champion of the Grand Slam of Darts is Luke Littler, who had a consistent performance from start to finish. He didn’t lose a single game throughout the entire tournament, going 3 – 0 in groups before beating Mike De Decker, Jermaine Wattimena, and Gary Anderson to set up a clash with Martin Lukeman in the final.

Littler showed utter domination in the final, coming back from 2 – 0 down to win an incredible 15 legs in a row to lift his first-ever major TV ranking trophy, with the final ending 16 – 3.

Players to Look Out For in the Grand Slam of Darts 2025

While the lineup for the Grand Slam of Darts 2025 is stacked, these three players are worth keeping an eye on:

Luke Littler

As always, there will be plenty of eyes on Luke Littler, with his explosive playstyle lighting up the world of darts. Many spectators will be eager to see if he can retain his title in the 2025 iteration of the Grand Slam of Darts.

Of course, a lot of this attention will also be from people who are looking to see his form before the biggest events in darts, the World Championship, gets underway the month after.

Michael van Gerwen

Michael van Gerwen is a player who you can never count out, despite his rather lacklustre performances over the past two years. He’s been dominant in the Grand Slam of Darts in previous iterations, with a total of three victories to his name, all of which came consecutively in 2015, 2016, and 2017, where he defeated some of the best players in the final, including the infamous Phil Taylor.

If the Green Machine can find some of his form from prior years, he stands a real chance of snatching the title back from Luke Littler, however, his recent scoring and doubling haven’t been overly impressive, at least when compared to the MvG from a decade ago.

Jonny Clayton

The Ferret Jonny Clayton is known for performing when it truly counts, and while striking in the World Championship would be his preference, making a deep run in the Grand Slam of Darts 2025 could really help his confidence. He’s been struggling as of late, however, Clayton is a huge momentum player, so if he scores well and finds some big checkouts, anything is possible.

Other Players in the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts

In addition to the three superstars mentioned above, there are 29 other talented individuals who will take to the stage in a hunt for the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts title, including:

• James Wade

• Jurjen van der Velde
• Lisa Ashton
• Beau Greaves
