Grand Slam Glory Awaits: Bet on the PDC with Sportingbet!
Published:
The stage is set for one of the most electrifying events in darts — the Mr Vegas Grand Slam of Darts. From 8–16 November, Wolverhampton’s WV Active Aldersley will play host as the world’s best step up to the oche to battle for the R14 850 000 prize pool and the prestigious Eric Bristow Trophy.
And this year, Sportingbet is your front-row seat to all the action, offering the best darts betting markets, odds, and outright specials across every match, leg, and checkout. If you’re looking to bet on darts, there’s no better time.
The Road to Wolverhampton
After a packed PDC season, the 32-player field is nearly complete. Twenty-four players have already booked their spots, with the remaining eight decided through the Tour Card Holder Qualifier in Wigan.
Big names are chasing the final slots — Michael Smith, Raymond van Barneveld, and Jose de Sousa among them — all desperate to punch their tickets to Wolverhampton. Even Peter Wright, a three-time Grand Slam finalist, faces a tense battle to keep his unbroken streak since 2013 alive.
Expect fireworks when the final lineup is confirmed. With Luke Littler defending his crown and Luke Humphries, Gerwyn Price, Jonny Clayton, and Michael van Gerwen among the confirmed contenders, this Grand Slam promises drama, precision, and world-class finishing.
Who Will Reign Supreme?
The pundits are split — but Luke Humphries is the name on everyone’s lips. Analysts from across the circuit, including Mark Webster and Rod Studd, have backed “Cool Hand Luke” to defend his title, thanks to his unmatched consistency in 2024 and early-season dominance.
Still, dark horses are emerging fast. Wessel Nijman’s explosive form on the ProTour has turned heads, while veterans like Gary Anderson and Dave Chisnall could easily cause upsets. In an event known for surprise runs, it’s anyone’s tournament to take.
When you bet on the PDC, every match feels like a final — and with Sportingbet’s in-play darts betting markets, you can back your favourite players in real time as the pressure mounts.

And for bettors, it’s a golden opportunity. With so many in-form players, value is everywhere — from Luke Littler’s title defence to potential shock runs by Noppert, Nijman, or Rock.
