The European Tour returns following a two-month break as a star-studded line-up descends on Vienna, and you can follow all the latest results and fixtures here.
The tenth of 13 live-streamed Euro Tour events this season will feature 48 players battling it out for the £25,000 title at the Multiversum Schwechat in Vienna.
The field is comprised of the top 16 entrants from the PDC ProTour Order of Merit (seeded through to the Second Round) plus a further 17 UK Qualifiers, six European qualifiers, two West & South European qualifiers, five Host Nation qualifiers, one Nordic & Baltic qualifier and one East European qualifier.
Michael van Gerwen is the number one seed as he bids to follow up back-to-back World Series triumphs in consecutive weeks with a fifth European Tour title of the season.
Fellow World Series stars Peter Wright, Daryl Gurney, Simon Whitlock and Kyle Anderson also make a swift return to action, while number two seed Ian White is on the hunt for a third Euro Tour title since May.
The likes of Gerwyn Price, Michael Smith, Dave Chisnall, Nathan Aspinall and home favourite Mensur Suljovic will also have their sights set on glory as the second half of the season begins in earnest.
Corey Cadby’s withdrawal from the tournament on Thursday meant a fifth Host Nation qualifier spot was added.
The tournament runs from August 30 to September 1, with all matches up to and including the Quarter-Finals to be contested over the best of 11 legs, Semi-Finals best of 13 and the final best of 15.
