The 2025 Ladbrokes UK Open gets underway on Friday, as Dimitri Van den Bergh begins his defence of the title amongst a star-studded 158-player field at Butlin's Minehead Resort.
The unique multi-board event, which takes place from February 28 to March 2, will see PDC Tour Card Holders compete against Amateur Qualifiers and players from the 2024 Winmau Challenge and Development Tours.
Day One of the £600,000 event will see all 158 players in action, as the first four rounds take place across eight stages, with Friday’s bumper afternoon session getting underway from 1100 GMT.
The opening round will feature Tour Card Holders ranked 97-128, along with players from the 2024 Challenge and Development Tours, plus PDC Amateur Qualifiers and PDC in the Community Qualifiers.
The first round winners will be joined by Tour Card Holders ranked 65-96 in round two, while the third round will feature Tour Card Holders ranked 33-64, plus the 32 second round winners.
Friday evening’s fourth round will see the world’s top 32 enter the fray, including reigning champion Van den Bergh, world number one Luke Humphries and World Champion Luke Littler.
