The biggest names in darts will return to Hamilton's Globox Arena on August 26-27 for the World Series of Darts event, which will be broadcast on Sky NZ and worldwide.
World Champions Peter Wright, Gerwyn Price and Michael van Gerwen had already been confirmed as attending the event, alongside history-maker Fallon Sherrock - who became the first woman to win a game at the PDC World Championship two years ago before reaching the 2021 Nordic Darts Masters final.

The PDC have also confirmed Australia's Whitlock, Heta and Gordon Mathers amongst the eight regional representatives for the tournament.
Four New Zealanders will be able to qualify for the event this year via DartPlayers New Zealand knockouts, with a further spot for an Australian qualifier also on offer.
The final two PDC stars will also be confirmed in due course for the event.
