A Major Opportunity for American Players

The arrival of the World Masters in Las Vegas represents a significant opportunity for North American players to compete in one of the most prestigious tournaments in the global darts calendar without traveling overseas.

The American Darts Organization expects strong participation from U.S. players and is excited to see a strong American contingent in the field.
