THREE St Helens darters will compete in the Cazoo Masters in February with Michael Smith, Dave Chisnall and Stephen Bunting competing in the £275,000 tournament.

The sport's biggest names will battle it out across three days of action at Milton Keynes' Marshall Arena from February 2-4.

The first round will feature players ranked 9-24 on the PDC Order of Merit - including Chisnall and and Bunting.

If Bunting goes through against former European champion Ross Smith, he will face newly-crowned World Champion Luke Humphries in Milton Keynes.

World number three Michael Smith will face either Dimitri Van den Bergh or 2014 winner James Wade, while Dirk van Duijvenbode and Ryan Searle compete for the right to meet World Matchplay champion Nathan Aspinall.

Martin Schindler locks horns with two-time Masters runner-up Dave Chisnall in round one, with seventh seed Danny Noppert awaiting the winner in the last 16.

Following Friday’s eight first round matches, the second round will take place across two sessions on Saturday February 3.

The tournament will then conclude on Sunday February 4, with the quarter-finals in the afternoon session, followed by the semi-finals and final in a bumper evening session.

The 2024 Cazoo Masters will be broadcast live on ITV in the UK, through the PDC's worldwide broadcast partners including DAZN and Viaplay, and on PDCTV (excluding Germany, Austria & Switzerland based subscribers).
