2016 World Matchplay

Darts tournamentTemplate:SHORTDESC:Darts tournament
The **2016 BetVictor World Matchplay** was the 23rd annual staging of the World Matchplay, organised by the Professional Darts Corporation. The tournament took place at the Winter Gardens, Blackpool, from 16–24 July 2016.

Michael van Gerwen was the defending champion after defeating James Wade 18–12 in the 2015 final, and he successfully defended his World Matchplay title by defeating Phil Taylor 18–10 in the final.

It was the first (and would turn out to be, only) time that Taylor has been defeated in a World Matchplay final. Van Gerwen also became only the third player to successfully defend the Matchplay trophy after Taylor and Rod Harrington.

The second round was also reduced in length from best of 25 legs to best of 21 legs. This still remains the current format for the World Matchplay.

This tournament was the first time in the event's history that no matches went into 'extra legs', the first time that Taylor had been defeated in the final after winning his previous 15, and the first time that Robert Thornton won a match at the event. It was also the first time that James Wade was defeated before the World Matchplay quarter-finals, after losing to Mervyn King in the first round.

## Prize money

The prize fund remained at £450,000 as it has been since the 2014 event.

 **First round** | (16) | £6,000

## Format

In previous stagings of the event all games had to be won by two clear legs with no sudden-death legs. However, in 2013 after consulting the host broadcaster Sky Sports, the PDC decided that games will now only proceed for a maximum of six extra legs before a tie-break leg is required. For example, in a best of 19 legs first round match, if the score reaches 12–12 then the 25th leg will be the decider.

2010 Grand Slam of Darts

Darts tournamentTemplate:SHORTDESC:Darts tournament
The **2010 Daily Mirror Grand Slam of Darts** was the fourth staging of the darts tournament, the Grand Slam of Darts organised by the Professional Darts Corporation. The event took place from 13–21 November 2010 at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall, Wolverhampton, England.

Phil Taylor was the defending three-time Grand Slam title after his 16–2 victory over Scott Waites in the 2009 final, but he was defeated 16–14 by Steve Beaton in the quarter-finals.

Waites would win the title, and would become the only member of the British Darts Organisation to win this event. Although 8–0 down at one stage, he made a remarkable comeback to defeat James Wade 16–12 in the final.

## Qualifying

There were numerous tournaments that provided qualifying opportunities to players. Most tournaments offering a qualifying position for the winner and runner-up of the tournament, however the World Championships and the Grand Slams offers a place in the tournament to all semi-finalists. There were also various other ways of qualifying for overseas players, including those from Europe and the United States, as well as a wildcard qualifying event open to any darts player.

The PDC decided to no longer invite Martin Adams to the Grand Slam due to his decision to turn down three consecutive invitations in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

## Draw

The draw was made on 8 November by ex-Aston Villa footballer Ian Taylor.
