Live Darts on Sunday | Czech Darts Open 2026 Day Three Preview and Order of Play
The 2026 Czech Darts Open draws to a close on Sunday as the remaining 16 hopefuls vie for glory in Prague.
Ten seeds and six qualifiers remain in the running for the £35,000 top prize at the PVA Expo as they lock horns over two sessions.
The afternoon session plays host to the Last 16 ties, before the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final follow in the evening.
World number one Luke Littler steps up his pursuit of a sixth European Tour title when he faces Polish number one Krzysztof Ratajski.
Littler is featuring in just his third European Tour event of the year, having claimed the Poland Darts Open title before losing in the Third Round of the Baltic Sea Darts Open.
The back-to-back World Champion set his stall out in style with a blistering 108.6 average in defeating Niko Springer 6-4 on Saturday and now faces another tricky test against the former World Master.
Ratajski, who claimed the European Darts Open title earlier this summer, averaged 101.5 in a 6-2 rout of Jermaine Wattimena and will be eyeing a dose of revenge following his five-set whitewash defeat to Littler in the quarter-finals of last year’s World Championship.
Meanwhile, defending champion Luke Humphries looks to continue his love affair with this stage when he comes up against former UK Open champion Andrew Gilding.
Humphries, who has claimed this title on three previous occasions and has lost just one of his 19 matches in Prague, powered past Beau Greaves 6-2 on Saturday with a 109 average – the highest of the tournament so far.
Gilding followed up Friday’s win over David Rosi with a 6-2 scalp of four-time European Tour event winner Nathan Aspinall in the second round and will be eyeing another significant upset here.
European Darts Grand Prix champion Gerwyn Price continues his bid for a second European Tour title of the season when he meets Cameron Menzies in the opening match of the afternoon.
Price averaged 103.8 in a 6-2 rout of Callan Rydz on Saturday evening, while Menzies dumped out of a below-par Gary Anderson to reach the Last 16 in Prague for the first time.
Last week’s Hungarian Darts Trophy champion Ross Smith resumes his bid for back-to-back European Tour titles with a tie against reigning European Champion Gian van Veen.
Smith picked up from where he left off in Budapest by thrashing Stephen Burton 6-1 on Saturday, while Van Veen averaged 100.8 in hammering Jeffrey De Graaf by the same scoreline.
Austrian Darts Open champion Josh Rock comes up against two-time European Tour runner-up William O’Connor, while three-time European Tour event winner Jonny Clayton faces a resurgent Keane Barry – featuring in the Last 16 for the second successive weekend.
A mouth-watering all-Dutch clash sees three-time World Champion Michael van Gerwen take on Wessel Nijman – twice a European Tour event winner this season.
Baltic Sea Darts Open champion Luke Woodhouse looks to pick up from where he left off in defeating Stephen Bunting with a 105 average when he faces ninth seed Danny Noppert – who demolished Kevin Doets 6-1 with a ton-plus average of his own.
The action gets under way from 12pm BST, with Last 16 and quarter-final ties to be contested over the best of 11 legs, semi-finals best of 13 and the final best of 15.
